For these reasons, I strongly believe that recognition for these six Virginia tribes is justified based on principles of dignity and fairness.
I believe it is appropriate for them to finally receive the federal recognition that has been denied for far too long.
I would like to emphasize my personal belief that this particular situation with respect to Virginia is historically unique.
My impression was this is not the situation you would have in many of these other historic evolutions, where you have the desire of the people on top simply to perpetuate a system of the past.
