We are tired of all the programs coming out of Washington. We are tired of all the conditions that are being set up. We are tired of our Tribal leaders being owned, and we are going to be back in Washington, even if it is just a handful who are here, and we are going to tell about what is going on.

[Applause & standing ovation]
