Editor,
Now is your time to make some new decisions Tribal members. You have seen that our present Tribal Council is not working in a direction that the majority of us agree with. Half of the councilmen are up for election and if you are up to the task you will find five new members who will work for the Tribal members instead of the Tribal Council. There are many issues that need to be addressed so that Tribal members have a voice in our Tribal government. Now is the time to start asking the hard questions of applicants for Tribal Council. We off-reservation members can’t vote so it’s on the shoulders of on-reservation members to. Start to make the change.
This could be the beginning of a better Tribal government for all members. Together you have a voice, divided you stand alone.
