Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar today welcomed First Lady Michelle
Obama to the Department of the Interior, hailing her as "a rock for the future
of the nation." The third visit of the First Lady to a federal department since
President Obama's inauguration featured a ceremony rooted in Interior's responsibilities
to Native Americans--Indian drum rolls and presentation of a shawl marking
her achievements. The event, held in the Yates Auditorium, was broadcast live
to Interior offices around the nation.
