The Lumbees deserve the full recognition that other tribes m America receive. Although I was raised in Chicago, Illinois by my Irish-American Father and my Lumbee Mother, my Native-American krnfolk have always been involved in our lives. Many of them, including my grandmother, would stay with us in Chicago when I was a growing child. Often, we would visit "down home" and usually one of the kids would spend summers in bumberton, NC. The influences of the Lumbee culture and values are a part of me. The Ufe of the lumbees is unique and rich with culture. This culture is one that must be preserved in America. The bill before Congress for Lumbee recognition will enhance the lives of the Lumbee people and assist our people with the support they need. Mr. President, the resources of America are many. Chief among these is our people. Preserving the lifeblood of America means preserving our people and assisting them as we move into the 21st century. While America supports people the world over, please consider us, American people, Native Americans, as paramount tn our desire for recognition. The bum bees are a part of the fabric of this country. We are a reflection of America's backbone. ..a quality resource that you can help preserve! As a San Diego, California resident, I praise your efforts as President. San Diego has a large Native American population. Lumbees are here and across the country helping in our personal and professional lives with the plight of the Indian. We seek your help now!
