I would like to take some time at this point to talk about some events in Asia. I think we all need to be paying very close attention to them. Before I do that, I would like to clarify my position on the vote we are going to be taking this…

Senator Webb, your efforts with respect to Burma have played an essential role in this regard.

For these reasons, I strongly believe that recognition for these six Virginia tribes is justified based on principles of dignity and fairness.
