Greetings Relatives/Frens/Humans,
The Navajo Nation government’s Gambling business is scheduled to make a report before the Navajo Nation Council Resources & Development Committee during their Telecommunications meeting today, 3.24.21, which is scheduled to start at 10 a.m.
To attend RDC meeting Via Telecommunications, the Call In Number: 1-669-900-6833 and the Meeting. ID: 732-628-2566 and Passcode: 86515. Please MUTE your phones. Ahe’hee!
Navajo Housing Authority is also scheduled to make a report to the RDC. I understand that NHA or as the Dine’ People say “No Housing Authority” has their employees signing Waivers to not hold NHA responsible if the NHA employees comes down with COVID-19 due to work…SMH I hope one of the RDC members asks NHA about whether they are making their workers sign a waiver.
Council Delegate Carl Slater is also scheduled to go before the RDC with legislation to protect the roads of the Navajo Nation during the pandemic by closing all Navajo Nation roads to visitors and tourists. Slater is a young Council delegate with new ideas. HIs latest idea is for the Navajo Nation to become a State…
May Peace Prevail on Mother Earth!
