to count more than 750,000 latinos, more than 750,000 african-americans, and more than 50,000 american indians and native alaskans. i'm very concerned that we could see an even bigger undercount in 2020. many americans are fearful and mistrustful of their government and overcoming that fear and mistrust requires a massive mobilization effort that we have never seen before. but the census bureau appears to be far behind schedule. an undercount will have an impact on the opportunities available to the people in these communities. it will mean more people going without health care, fewer resources for child care, afford al housing, and less money for local schools. as a committee and a congress, our message should be simple. everyone must be counted. i'm grateful to each of our witnesses here today not just for assisting the committee but for your tireless advocacy to ensure that members of communities are counted fairly and accurately as the constitution requires. with that, i yield back. >> the chair now recognizes the ranking member. >> i thank the chair. before getting to my opening statement

we see american indian history as a sideshow to american history.we see american indian people as being in america but not of it. we see native community as suffering and native people as victims of history and not the makers of it. i was thinking about all of that and it was all around my memory of reading classic which was published in the year of my birth in 1970. he primed it that way. [laughter] on the very first page, the best selling book published. translated into 17 languages. it's a bestseller. the very first pages, he said i'm focusing on the american west in the years of the planes were. i ended the massacre in 1890, the culture and civilization on the american indian was destroyed. he goes on the next page. if you happen to travel to a contemporary indian reservation and noticed the poverty and hopelessness, perhaps by reading my book, you will understand why. i read that book on the 100 and the bursary in 1990. i had contrasting feelings. on one hand, i felt really happy that someone of brown's energy, enthusiasm and compassion devoted

so you have african-americans, you had people of puerto rican background, mexican-americans, american indians, all kinds of people from appalachia and various other parts of the country. so the idea that you could combine all of these different ethnic and racial backgrounds into one unified message was yet another challenge that they faced in making it successful in washington. >> i'm interested in this sort of writer's question. you break him of of that magnetd get into all of the dimensions. what would be the moment he felt the most personal connection to king when yo you yourself having lived this filled the emotions yourself that surprised you? >> that is a good question. i think i would say to understand his courage it is towards the end of the mountaintop speech. coming to terms with it and being willing to talk about it so openly i really felt a great emotional identity or compassion within and it was thinking about that and about the enormous pressure he was under in fear foand fearfor his life the nighe was killed and i think that is the moment but it's a very good question. >> i use

these attacks have happened at the military bases which were not popular to get rid of american soldiers the indians are claiming that did one console just so we don't know at this particular point of dime but going by the tone offered indians when by what it in 4 mr said and going by what president going to come so far has said that indicates that none of them neither us nor iran they have wants as for the escalation not been was that that intent on off revenge they want to get avenge the cause joe going to cost them so the money was not an already military general he was the man who was actually architect of the jews to get equal a seat off iran in the middle east enough money and he's a man who has been out of nosing these proxies in the in some can see against american interest so i think what we have seen today going by what americans are seeing that there is no loss if that is a case that means the it indians are not messaging the high and i took the have been given to dip their own people it seemed that iran doesn't want a military conflict conflict with the we the us about it want to flick i

i've represented all faiths, catholic, protestant, people of the jewish faith, muslim, native american indian, even the fallen. so i thought the way if we start this discussion, if people don't care about religious freedom, then they will not be that into what we are saying. let me start with the first, why should you care about religious freedom? if you're a person of faith has come obvious. what of the freedom to live out the faith, but what if you're not a person of faith? should it be important to you? the answer is yes to our founders call this the first freedom because they understood if you lose this freedom, you will lose all your freedoms. there's lots of ways i could describe it but the quick is what i can do this is, the one thing that a totalitarian regime will never allow our citizens who hold an allegiance to one higher than the government. whenever you see that type of oppressive regime come into force, you will see the flashpoint will be religious freedom. if you lose at that point, you will lose it all. this has been seconded to me over and over again. as i speak around the c
