It has become afflicted with the methamphetamine crisis. As I met with them. one of the things that became very clear is that much of what is driving the methamphetamine scourge in our area of the country Is people who have come here illegally. It is illegal immigrants who come in and set up these distribution systems in this country. and they are targeting the Indian reservations. There have been a number of stories about how the methamphetamineif you want to call them cartels or whateverhave looked for places in the United States where they have wide open space. which we have on our reservations in South Dakota and we do not have sufficient law enforcement to necessarily keep up with some of those problems. They are targeting Indian reservations.
