What do you envision that tribal consultation to look like?

We need an advocate, someone who is going to fight for our tribal communities. We have a system that appears to be broken and we need to fix it.

I believe decisions about me should not be made without me.

Do you think that we need to take any further action in regards to the Stafford Act in order to achieve power and resiliency in Puerto Rico?

During our last hearing on this subject, it was made clear to the Committee that the Stafford Act, as written, requires funds to be used only to restore damaged equipment to its previous state which made no sense for Puerto Rico given the…

It's a compromise between the impact of existing members and the new members.

I know I am running out of time, but with your indulgence, one quick question because I do have concerns about the Indian Energy Loan Guarantees.
