One issue I have focused on throughout my entire time in Congress is Federal information technology reform.

I would just urge you if you're going down the road, if the President's going down the road to unilateral withdrawal--I would also urge you to talk to Secretary Perry.

I will convey that information to all the members of the Committee. I would love to visit you both in your respective States.

Will you also commit to reviewing your office's Indian Country declination rates and working with tribal leaders to identify and resolve any barriers to prosecution?

Just last December, DOJ's OIG released a report confirming what tribes have told us.

Could Congress help encourage more fruitful partnerships by providing tribes with their own direct funding?

robust direct funding to tribal communities

I really believe that, you know, from the position that the Democrats have laid out in terms of an infrastructure package, the things that you all are talking about over here--there's a lot of room for common ground, and I hope we can come…

Thank you so much, Senator Daines.

So is it fair to say that unilateral withdrawal has been taken off the table?

I would like to thank you for holding the hearing, 'Opioids in Indian Country: Beyond the Crisis to Healing the Community.'

Any cuts to tribal programs hamper the tribe's ability to sufficiently provide services to its members.
