The state we're in now is because of the policy decision to co-opt those people who in the past committed human rights abuses. There's a culture of impunity.

What the tribes are dealing with, it's not a pretty picture. One of the things we want to do is support [the police] and try to bring about the unmet needs that these tribal law enforcement deserve and should have, since they're on the front lines standing in harm's way day in and day out; and we owe them as much to have all the resources they need to do their jobs.
Robert Holden

Recent dissent has arisen over tribal overtures to assert their inherent governmental authority to protect surface water, ground water, air and drinking water sources within their reservation boundaries.
