December 24, 2013. Spilygy Tymoo, Warm Springs, Oregon Pgge 8 Tribes are eligible for foreign assistance By Todd Theringer Native News Online.net The Turkish Ambassador, N am ik Tan in N ovem b er presented the very first de velopm ent assistance grant given by the Turkish Agency for Cooperation and Collabo ration to an American Indian trib e , th e C o n fe d e ra te d Tribes o f Warm Springs. The Turkish Ambassador talked about the kinship the Turkish people feel they have with American Indians based on an ancient connection in Central Asia. Representing the Confed erated Tribes, Paiute C hief Joseph Moses thanked the Turkish Government for giv ing $200,000 to the tribe to pay for a water tank at a new elementary school that the tribe has been asking the Bu reau o f Indian E d u catio n / Bureau o f Indian Affairs to build for the past 20 years. Chief Moses talked about children spending 80 minutes a day on a school bus to be able to atten d elem entary school. This new school will reduce the need for long com mutes and help the parents in the local com m unity to participate in the education of their children. This small grant from a foreign country is a sign that tribes should seek out inter national developm ent assis tance. I f the tribes are truly sovereign nations, then there is no reason that they cannot accept foreign economic as sistance. Venezuela’s Citgo p etro leum has been providing free heating oil for the past nine years to over 60 American Indian tribes. There is no reason for the trib es to w ait aro u n d for Washington to help meet the needs o f their citizens. The Bureau o f Indian Af fairs b udget has rem ained about the same as during the Bush Administration as under the O bam a Administration, despite Obama’s willingness to consult with the tribes. Enrollment dispute reported among the Grand Ronde (AP) — A dispute over en rollm ent has divided m em bers o f the C o n fed erated T rib es o f G ra n d R onde, which operates Oregon’s larg est tribal casino. The Salem Statesman jour nal reports a tribal leader has said some might not be N a tive American. The tribe has grown by al- m o s t 50 p e rc e n t since it opened its casino nearly two decades ago about 30 miles w est o f Salem in the Coast Range. T h e ' trib al co u n cil has moved to drop 13 members from enrollm ent. Officials say there’s a four-step removal process, including appeals. The council also sent the cases o f 17 people back to a com m ittee reviewing the tribal roll. O ne mem ber has,chal lenged the au d it in tribal court. Losing membership means losing shares o f tribal income, now $3,600 a year, as well as housing, health and education benefits^ Horse slaughter plants gearing up for business A fter m onths o f legal wrangling and false starts in a m ore than two-year batde to resume domestic horse slaughter, plants in New Mexico and Missouri were working last week to begin processing equine meat for human consump tion. T he efforts com e on the heels o f an order ear lier in the m onth by a fed eral appeals co u rt th a t lifted an emergency stay on the companies’ plans. “They are pushing full steam ahead to be ready to go as soon as possible,” said Blair Dunn, an Albuquerque attorney who represents Val ley Meat Co. o f Roswell and R ains N a tu ra l M eats o f Gallatin, Mo. Rains N atural Meats, he said, even had horses on site. Btit it was unclear whether the plants w ould o p en before Christmas or wait until after the holidays. A third company, Respon sible T ra n s p o rta tio n o f Sigourney, Iowa, was review ing its options, having already converted to beef. Founder and CEO Keaton Walker said the company’s beef operation was struggling against b etter-estab lish ed competitors and he planned to sell the p lant unless he knew for sure that he could process horses. H e said he expected to make a decision by early January. “We’re continuing to p ro cess cattle and will for the foreseeable future,” Walker said. “We’re still trying to un derstand what this all means right now. Honestly, I ’m not really sure what we’re going to do.” I t was the third time in five m o n th s th a t th e horse plants were scram bling to open. Valley, which-led the effort to resume domes tic horse slaughter two years ago after Congress lifted its ban on the prac tice, along w ith Rains and R esponsible, was p re p a rin g to o p en in August when The H u m ane S o ciety o f th e United States and other animal protection groups sued to contest the D e p a rtm e n t o f A g ricu l ture’s permitting process.
