LETTER FROM THE CHIEF OF THE NATION -- A REQUEST FOR SUPPORT
March 28, 2023
Osiyo, Tribal Citizens and Friends,
I know how much you care about your Nation but it’s been a while since we last heard from you, and your Tribe needs you NOW more than ever. Please, renew your support. Your renewed commitment is so important because, right now, most of you, are tired of thinking about the economy and the rising cost of EVERYTHING! Food, fuel, interest rates, you name it, everything you need to survive costs more every day. The same goes for your Nation. Paper and ink, stamps, utilities, $1,100 for propane last week, everything it takes to keep your office open is needed. Don’t think that the smallest donation is not welcome. Ten or twenty dollars here and there still adds up.
Here are some of the things we have accomplished in the last few years because of your support. We have paid off the mortgage on your tribal property. The deed now reads NORTHERN CHEROKEE NATION, and not you know who. We won our lawsuit with the St. Louis crowd. Our people are now being recertified as minority contractors.
We have begun a renewed friendship and agreement of cooperation with the Sac and White River people, the Western Cherokee Nation of Arkansas and Missouri and the Pomme de Terr Rendezvous, and a big one coming, that will surprise everyone. Bottom line, we have been acknowledged as the most upwardly mobile non-federalized tribe in the nation. I can’t reveal my source, YET.
The line under that, dig a little deeper, support your nation. All of you are our only resource, and you are doing pretty good. Look at what you have accomplished, and "you ain’t seen nothing yet."

EXECUTIVE ORDER
In consideration of concerns expressed by tribal members and my own assessment of the probability of serious incidents, I hereby order and declare that, effective immediately, animals of any kind including pets, livestock and any others will no longer be allowed inside the tribal office complex or the kitchen building at any time.
However, in certain situations when an individual wishes to attend a tribal function and is so severely disabled as to require the constant assistance of an officially certified service animal, an exception to this ban may be allowed upon approval by the Principal Chief with the concurrence of the Chief Elder.
This ban is limited to the tribal buildings and does not include the tribal grounds. However, any animals on the grounds must be restrained by leash, tether, cage, pen or other means at all times. Free roaming animals on the tribal grounds will be subject to impoundment.
Ordered and declared this ___23rd__ day of August, 2022
