Senator Tammy Baldwin (Wisconsin) and Senator Jon Tester (Montana, Chairman of the Indian Affairs Committee) visited the Lac Courte Oreilles Reservation yesterday (October 23rd). The LCO reservation is near Hayward, Wisconsin.
The children of the Waadookodaading School sang for the two senators in the Ojibwe language. A video clip is now on Facebook.
By the way, the Lac Courte Oreilles (pronounced "La Coot Ah-Ray") have a good website which includes a page devoted to their school which is, unfortunately, in the midst of something of a funding crisis right now.
In the video clip below, Senator Baldwin talks about her visit to the LCO reservation and school:
