Excerpt from Challenges Confronting American Indian Youth, Vol. 1: Hearing Before the Committee on Indian Affairs, United States Senate, One Hundred Fourth Congress, First Session; Oversight Hearing on Challenges Confronting American Indian Youth; February 9, 1995, Washington DC The committee met, pursuant to notice, at 10 a.m. in room DG- 50, Dirksen Senate Office Building, Hon. Daniel K. Inouye (vice chairman of the committee) presiding. Present: Senators Inouye, McCain, Domenici, Nickles, Conrad, Dorgan, and Campbell. Statement Of Hon. Daniel K. Inouye, U.S. Senator From Hawaii, Vice Chairman, Committee On Indian Affairs Senator Inouye. Good morning. On behalf of the chairman of the committee. Senator John McCain, and members of this committee, I want to extend a special greeting to all of those young men and women who are assembled here today representing American Indian and Alaska Native communities throughout Indian country as participants in the United National Indian Youth Organization, more commonly referred to as Unity, conference which is being held this week in our Nations capital. I am certain all of you realize that the young people represent the best and brightest of tomorrow´s leaders in Indian country. You are this Nation´s most promising hope for bringing about meaningful change. As tomorrow´s leaders, you must continue to plan for the future and each of you must have the strength and commitment to carry out the work that is necessary to improve the lives of all Indian people. You can make a contribution to your community by involving yourselves in the decision-making processes of your tribal governments, as well as informing yourselves as to what is going on around you at the State and Federal levels of Government. Here in the U.S. Congress, as members of the Committee on Indian Affairs, we must constantly remind one and all that Indian tribal governments have a unique political relationship with the United States which is based upon solemn treaties. It is because of these treaties that Indian tribes retain a government-to-government relationship with the United States, and it is that relationship which distinguishes Indian people from other ethnic or racially-identified groups of American citizens.
