Primary record
I can't tell you what a special thanks I have for Deb Haaland, my Interior Secretary.
I formally apologize, as President of the United States of America, for what we did. I formally apologize. And it's long overdue.
The Federal Indian Boarding School policy and the pain it has caused will always be a significant mark of shame, a blot on American history.
I have a solemn responsibility to be the first President to formally apologize to the Native peoples
empty promise for our people
