N.D. House Majority Leader Al Carlson, R-Fargo


Rep. Al Carlson, R-Fargo, the North Dakota House majority leader and sponsor of legislation to require the University of North Dakota to keep its Fighting Sioux nickname, speaks to a North Dakota Senate Education Committee hearing on the bill on Monday, March 7, 2011, in the North Dakota Capitol in Bismarck, N.D. The measure was approved in the House with two-thirds support, but backing for the legislation in the Senate is seen as less robust. (AP Photo/Dale Wetzel)
