OPINIONS ᏃᎵᏍᎬᎢ
COMMENTARY: We have all been here before….
I’ve watched the highlights of both Democrat and Republican conventions and the contrast is truly amazing.
COMMENTARY: Don’t move rocks in tribal, park waterways
I drive by the Oconaluftee River, on the Qualla Boundary, multiple times daily and I frequently take walks on the Oconaluftee River Trail in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. It seems that as tourism increases in late spring and summer, a practice increases – one that damages river ecosystems for many species…moving and stacking rocks.
COMMENTARY: Take control
The Tribal Council is considering legislation that will revise the existing law regarding elections
