Choosing between an unaccountable subsidiary of the executive branch versus a body like Congress, that has direct accountability to the citizens of the states, I think the choice for us is the latter.
Reyes prefers Congress's accountability over executive branch decisions regarding tribal matters.

The question at issue is not 'should potential tribes be recognized' but 'who should make the final determination of recognition' when so many critical interests are at stake.
Definitely the latter, Mr. Chairman, and we are proud in Utah to be a fiscally conservative state that have seen in migration from many of those states.
Would that result in people being discriminated against, say, for a place on a board of directors based on political viewpoint?
I am proud to be American. But I am also proud of my Native Hawaiian heritage, its rich cultural traditions and its contributions to this country.
