Tom Udall

Many folks are on edge wondering how disruptive any negotiation process or resulting agreement will be.

I believe New Mexico could be one of the most hardest hit by a trade war.

I know several Members are ready to come here and talk on a veterans issue, and they will let me know when they are ready to start. I thought there might be a good chance to get this in. Our democracy is under attack. U.S. intelligence…

Thank you for your consideration and support of the NEA in the fiscal year 2018 budget.

I thank you for your support and recognition of the valuable contributions of cultural institutions to every community across the nation.

You really set an example as Governor as to how to work with Mexico.

I urge you to cosponsor The Special Diabetes Program for Indians Reauthorization Act of 2017 (S. 747), which was recently introduced by Senator Tom Udall (D-NM).

The New Mexico economy is dependent on immigrants. It is dependent.

The point of the question I think was how widespread is the preventative service in all the facilities with SDPI?

Ranking Member Udall for his recent introduction of the Special Diabetes Program for Indians Reauthorization Act of 2017 (S. 747), which NCUIH strongly supports.

SDPI has been flat funded for over a decade now despite the high return on investment.

SDPI is an excellent example of the difference investing in preventative care can make for whole communities.

The point was made here and several of the witnesses have asked and been asked, we know it is a key to have healthy food but can they access healthy food.

One of the biggest problems we have in Indian Country is the lack of nutritional education.

I think on some of the reservations you see failing health but they do have access to fresh produce and stuff like that.

I introduced a bill to reauthorize SDPI for another seven years.

Thank you very much, Chairman Hoeven, for calling this oversight hearing on Native Youth and Diabetes Prevention.

We need each other. We need to work with each other, not fight.

Is it in every Indian Health Service area?

The Middle East poses some of the most difficult diplomatic challenges faced by our Nation. The region is troubled, unstable, sometimes dangerous. Conflicts span over centuries. Peace throughout the region seems distant and far away. And…

I am deeply troubled by the Trump administration's proposed fiscal year 2018 budget calling for the elimination of the NEA.

As you craft the fiscal year 2018 Interior Appropriations bill, we encourage you take into account the significant leveraging of limited Federal resources our Corps accomplish in partnership with land management agencies.

We strongly support increasing funding for renewable energy programs across the Department of Interior to $110.4 million in fiscal year 2018.

It would be unthinkable for the United States to fail to fully comply with contractual obligations to other treaty parties without consequence.

This is absolutely wrong.
