moran: mr. president, thank you very much. i'd like to address my colleagues on a piece of legislation called the national labor relations act. it was enacted in 1935, and that legislation exempted federal, state, local governments but did not explicitly mention native american governments from the provisions of the act. as a matter of sovereignty, indian tribes, tribes across the country, should be excluded from the provisions of the nrlb. and for 70 years, the nrlb honored the sovereign status, and it accorded them the rights they are entitled to under the constitution of the united states. beginning in 2004, however, the nlrb reversed its treatment of tribes and legally challenged those tribes in regard to the nlrb. the tribal labor sovereignty act, which i introduced and passed the senate committee on indian affairs in a bipartisan way, is simple. the national labor relations act is amended to provide that any enterprise or institution owned and operated by an indian tribe and located on tri

the editorial newspaper at the "star ledger" is tom moran who has covered chris christie for 14 yearseeing this new hampshire endorsement headline for governor christie today tom moran was so flabbergasted at that endorsement he called up his counterpart at "the union leader" who said basically who are of youing looking at the same guy i am? he wrote, quote, take bridge gate, the editorial made no mention of it. how about pension reform. the board of manchester did not know that christie made his core promise on that. the editorial said he dealt admirableably with super storm sandy. that would come to the shock at victims. 67% say they're dissatisfied with the state's response. how about the nine credit downgrades on his watch as governor? you get the idea. i hate to second-guess a fellow editorial board. but this editorial confirms my worse fears about this presidential race. it's all about performance, not substance. that's the view of chris christie's home state. you know, still, good news for chris christie in new hampshire. he got the big new hampshire endorsement which he does s
