so for those of us who grew up in the tongas, i was born in ketchikan and raised in places like juneau and wrangle, to see an economy cut off to the point that it is no longer existent because of federal policies, it's very difficult, very difficult to deal with. then of course, we can take a look at alaska's oil and gas industry. currently provides nearly 90% of the revenues for alaska's state budget, and historically as much as 20% of our nation's petroleum supply, we're pretty proud of this. we feel like we've done a pretty good job. here more than anywhere else we see the scope and the consequence of federal decisions to restrict resource development. we've just to put things in context, so people know what we're talking about, i don't have the rest of the country on here, mr. president, because that chart is coming later, but in understanding where alaska's resources lie, i think it helps to understand the management and the division, if you will, within our state in terms of our lands. the map which i don't expect most can see is kind of a jumble of colors, but what i will direct

i was down in juneau, alaska, last week and visiting several questions at the elementary level where the students are very engaged in their traditional languages, and you can see the thrill in being part of these classrooms where they have an exposure to that. in the particular question in an elder, andhere is this grandmother is not a qualified teacher, but the she land incredible value to the program as she works with these young people. it is something that as we look to the provisions that we put in law and require of our teachers -- i want all our teachers to be the best they possibly can, but i also recognize you have situations where you will not have an elder who has the gift of that language going off and getting the credentials necessary to be a highly qualified teacher. i am proposing in this amendment that would codify u.s. department of education guidelines that native american teachers of american indian, alaskan native, or native hawaiian languages do not have to be highly qualified teachers and that if these teachers have made history and culture are serving as a gues
