In his opening remarks\, he said\, “As an enrolled member of the Chickasaw Nation of Oklahoma\, Tribal issues have always been at the forefront of the policy decisions I make as a member of Congress and as a member of this important Committee. I have been – and remain – committed to ensuring the federal government upholds its trust responsibility to Native Americans to provide basic services and resources throughout Indian Country. I have been in contact with the agencies and the White House to ensure our responsibilities to the Tribes are fully understood across all facets of the federal government.”
