Over
the past four years, through tribal consultation and the White House
Tribal Nations Conferences, President Obama and his Administration
have worked to ensure that tribal leaders are directly involved in
setting policy priorities. Today, President Obama is hosting the
2012 White House Tribal Nations Conference at the Department of
Interior.
This conference continues to build upon the
President's commitment to strengthen the government to government
relationship with Indian Country, by providing invited leaders from
the 566 federally recognized tribes the opportunity to interact
directly with the President and representatives from the highest
levels of his Administration. In conjunction with today's event, the
White House released a report, Continuing the Progress in Tribal Communities,
that
examines the President's agenda and how this Administration, by
working together with tribes, has made a difference for American
Indians and Alaska Natives.

Thank you, Brian, for that wonderful introduction. Thanks to all the

a tireless advocate for Native Americans throughout his career. (Applause.)
