I recently looked in the paper and read about an effort by some tribal Council delegates to change Navajo Nation marriage law.

I am disgusted with the trash that continuously accumulates at our precious water source: Tsaile/Wheatfields (Tsezhin Bitoh Spring).

It is very interesting seeing the approaches to planning, spending, management, tracking, evaluation – if any – and corrective action(s) plans by our Navajo Nation regarding federal funds.

It is good that 10% of the American Rescue Plan Act funding was set aside for administrative purposes; over $200 million with the creation of the Fiscal Recovery Fund office to prepare for the expenditure of ARPA funding on infrastructure and community-based projects.

There is a recent Navajo Nation Council legislation for a referendum to increase the number of delegates from 24 to 48. While that is making its way to the ballot, I want us to think about their current annual salary and the impacts of inflation.
