Tribal sovereignty means respecting the right of Tribal nations to make decisions for their own communities, lands, and resources. For generations, Tribal nations have cared for the land and wildlife that are central to their cultures and traditions. Washington should respect that expertise and support Tribal self-determination, not impose unnecessary barriers.
I’m proud to lead bipartisan legislation that puts Tribal nations in the driver’s seat on buffalo conservation, strengthens their authority to manage these important resources, and creates new economic opportunities across Indian Country.
As Chairman of the Indian and Insular Affairs Subcommittee, I believe the federal government’s responsibility is to honor its trust and treaty obligations while respecting Tribal sovereignty. I’ll continue working across party lines to ensure Tribal nations have the authority, resources, and flexibility to make decisions that serve their people and preserve their traditions for generations to come.

Water is life!
Great to join Crow Tribe Chairman Frank Whiteclay today at Yellowtail Afterbay Dam to celebrate our Crow Tribe Water Rights Settlement Amendments Act becoming law!
From this major win for the Crow Tribe to our Fort Peck water legislation being signed into law, we’re making real progress on rural water infrastructure across central and eastern Montana.
Every Montanan deserves access to clean, reliable water.

Fall is a reel good time to go fishing!
Cooler temperatures and beautiful fall colors make autumn a great time to cast a line on America's public lands. It's the perfect time to slow down, enjoy the scenery and maybe even reel in the catch of a lifetime.
Grab your gear and find your next favorite fishing spot on your public lands.

Last October, I introduced the North Rim Restoration Act in response to the Dragon Bravo Fire. In under 6 months, we got the bill passed out of the House. We now await a final vote on the Senate floor before it becomes law.
Gateway communities in #AZ02 are counting on it.
