'Our shared federal trust and treaty obligations demand nothing less': Sen. Brian Schatz (D-Hawaii)

Sen. Brian Schatz (D-Hawaii) speaks in support of increased COVID-19 relief and additional funding for Indian nations, Alaska Natives and Native Hawaiians on February 3, 2021.

“From Hawaiian homelands to villages, pueblos, rancherias, and other Native communities, our fellow Americans who live on or near these lands need immediate relief. Not half measures, and not more delays,” said Schatz, who is the new chairman of the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs.

“We all need to work together and support Native families and communities across the country. Our shared federal trust and treaty obligations demand nothing less,” said Schatz, who has served on the committee since 2013.
