Mesquakie Council Rejects $2,500 per Member Plan

Leo Dean Peters, a dissenter, noted a new petition to challenge the decision by Wanda Lasley and Fern Seaboy and urged tribal members to sign. Peters argues the payout would not deplete funds and could boost economic development on the Tama County settlement.
