Nespelem District Council Position #2

Dear Nespelem District Voters
 
Thank you for visiting my page to learn more of why I decided to run for the Colville Business Council and to represent the Nespelem District.
 
I have learned a great deal in my time away from the Council.  But I feel my experience serving as Chairman during the first Trump Administration are strengths, we as a Tribe need in this current time.  The Trump Administration is attacking on all fronts.  I would have begun to work and prepare for these actions in November 2024 when the election was certified.  We need to protect ourselves, our land and our resources through experienced leadership and education.  
 
There are issues that I started when I was first elected to Council that I would like to continue to work on.  Our District has not had any development in years.  We need and deserve our Longhouses.  I want to work on the development of our land purchase at Pasco.  I want to see salmon reintroduced back above Grand Coulee Dam.  I read my initial letter to the membership, and I stated that I want better for our people, and I still want our people to be prosperous.  I want to be a part of creating an environment that our children can flourish in, where they can grow and learn our traditions.  I want to preserve our Natural Areas to remain abundant with the animals, fish, roots, berries and medicines of our ancestors.  
 
I would be honored to have you VOTE in the Primary on, May 10, 2025.  To request an absentee ballot contact election at 509-634-2151 or 509-634-2121.
