How does one tell the Navajo stock grazer and his family that they can no longer graze their stock on the places they have grazed them since they were born and since they were small children? That is something that is going to be very difficult for the Government to do. In my effort in trying to slow down what I consider to be a removal from the land of the Navajo people in the joint use area over a very short period of time. my efforts are to prevent a class of refugees being created that the Government and Congress and every Member of this Senate will regret when that time comes. I agree and the Navajo agree. the leadership at least right now agrees. that the Hopis are absolutely entitled to what the court has awarded them. and I agree with that. I do not disagree. and I think they ought to have it coming to them.
