Good Roll 892 Rosemary Jameson Roll U 883 Dear Smoke Signals: We, as a Tribe, need to come together to make sure our ordinances and Constitution are not being changed to benefit a few. No ordinance can be changed without going through the proper channels. Then the final change will be our votes. If our Constitution has been breached, then us, as Tribal members, need to make sure it is put back to the original state.
