Tom Udall

Thank you for holding this important hearing. We really appreciate you being here.

I think this has been very excellent testimony. And obviously there are some very positive aspects to AI.

I'm concerned about the privacy implications that this kind of sharing could have.

Thank you, Chairman Hoeven, for calling today's legislative hearing.

I welcome his valuable input on behalf of the Navajo Nation.

I'd also like to underscore the importance of Indian water rights settlements generally.

I ask unanimous consent to have printed in the Record the following letters from Senator Hoeven and me to the chairman and ranking member of the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions, and from Margaret Zientek to…

will you commit to support and advocate for NOAA's missions and not to interfere with or undermine those missions?

Will you commit to maintaining a culture at the agency that respects the integrity of rigorously researched and tested scientific findings?

will you commit to support and carry out NOAA's statutory responsibilities implementing the full suite of conservation laws?

will you commit to not undermine the agency's research on climate change?

In New Mexico, we not only have the rural health care issue we've talked about, but we also have a huge issue in terms of Native Americans and Native American veterans.

Thank you for your work on this.
