He is the first American Indian general authority since George P. Lee. Before that, he was the Assistant Secretary of the Interior for Indian Affairs (May 22, 2009 – April 27, 2012).
His department was in violation of Federal law for failing to release tribal economic and employment reports. He left to become a Mormon general authority and his assistant had to answer to congress.
Lots of South Dakota foster care system vioilations of the Indian Child Welfare Act.
Do a search on him. He's a typical Mormon politician.
