Jim Webb: “Sanctions help preserve the natural resources of Burma for future generations.”

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

I think if the administration had properly put the issue before the Congress, the likelihood is that it would have been supported.

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

when you make that determination, you should be making it in the U.S. Congress not by one individual of whichever party who happens to be the President.
