RDC CHAIRPERSON KATHERINE BENALLY
I asked NDOT if they support. NDOT told me it was not their legislation.

NDOT DIRECTOR PAULSON CHACO
This is not our legislation and we commented on what we disagreed upon which was the Fuel Excise Tax in the different states located on the Navajo Reservation. we have not introduced our legislation because we knew this was going before B&F and RDC.

JOINT COMMITTEE CHAIRPERSON LORENZO BATES
We lost our quorum and can only do reports. B&F has four members here and B&F has quorum.
