I am making an important report to the Tribal Membership:
In the 2008 Election, an error was made that eliminated the ability of either the Fallon Business Council or the Membership to remove a Council Member.
What Happened
Constitutional Amendment D contained Sections 1, 2 and 3 of Article V – Vacancies and Removals. It should have been identified on the Ballot as Sections 1, 5 and 6. Due to that numbering mistake, the Sections that 1) allow the Council to remove a Council member by a vote of six (Section 2), or …

Honorable Harry Reid
United States Senate
Washington, D.C. 20510
Dear Senator Reid:
As the recognized leaders –both elected Tribal Council Chairmen and recognized standing Committee Chairs of the Western Shoshones –come to you as a long standing respected supporter of our people’s issues regarding our effort to bring closure to our U.S. Court of Claims settlement (1951-1977). Your advocacy and assistance in the Senate’s passage of a “Plan” for distribution in 2004 (P.L. 108-270) and your help to secure financing to implement the BIA’s “application process” was sincerely appreciated. Since the passage of the …

Five years after signing Public Law 108-270 into law, the Western Shoshone continue to wait for payment because of the stagnant inaction of the Department of Interior and Bureau of Indian Affairs in Washington, DC. Approximately 7,500 applications have been submitted since April 2006 – yet five years after becoming law not one single Western Shoshone beneficiary has been certified.
 
“The Western Shoshone Judgment Fund Distribution Act, Public Law 108-270, 118 Stat. 805 (Act), dated July 7, 2004 requires the Secretary of the Interior to establish a judgment fund per capita …
