    1. The argument for Osage Nation Congressional regional districting is strong. If we are going to own land outside of Osage County, then we need representation on a State by State basis in order to be able to properly interact with individual State Delegations to Washington D.C. from a legal standpoint as a Sovereign Native American Nation.

      See https://www.senate.gov/senators/senators-contact.htm

      See https://www.house.gov/representatives/find-your-representative

      The Cherokee Nation has a Secretary of State who interacts with their membership where they reside on a State by State basis. See https://www.linkedin.com/in/melanie-knight-9a70b113 "The Cherokee Nation has more than 300,000 tribal members, making it the largest of the 567 federally recognized tribes in the United States." "...with 3,400 employees presently." See https://www.linkedin.com/in/melanie-knight-9a70b113

      In comparison to the Cherokee Nation, the Osage Nation government has double the amount of employees (roughly 500) on the basis of the total population of members at 23,000 with 60 to 90 or more new hires on the way depending on who you're talking to...

  7. To my knowledge, the only one of these lawyers who is actually licensed to practice in the State of Oklahoma is Judge Oldfield:

    1. One of these people has been there since the Gray administration and others for two terms which is more than enough time to become a licensed lawyer in the State of Oklahoma in all three cases. At the very least, this should be a requirement to sit on the Supreme Court of the Osage Nation.

  8. VOTER NOTIFICATION:
    Sponsor of the legislation to take away the health benefits rollover: Paula Stabler.

    Voting yes:
    Scott BigHorse
    Alice Goodfox
    Billy Keene
    Brandy Lemon
    Angela Pratt
    Jody Revard
    Pam Shaw
    Paula Stabler

    No finding in the legislation as to why this was needed in the Pandemic with $100m plus coming from the Feds to assist the Osage people. Standingbear SIGNED the bill.

  10. Joe Tillman for Principal Chief of the Osage Nation! See https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=pfbid029FjVv9mWiGwtQhHEVDpzsJ8SzHXiW1i6QMHwrT1kgqi4m7U7WjBxHqSz21xrHgwHl&id=100000216621959

    1. To prove the point and how well Joe Tillman did in this election, in 2014 there were 2267 votes cast for Chief of the Osage Nation and GSB received 963 more votes than his opponent. In 2018, 2403 Osages voted for Chief of the Osage Nation and GSB received 915 more votes than his opponent in that election.

      In this election in 2022, of 2,464 votes cast for Chief, GSB received a mere 86 more votes than Joe Tillman indicating a massive erosion and loss of support among the Osage Nation membership across the board and among those who likely voted for him in the last two previous elections.

  13. I am Tina Allen and I am running for a seat in the Osage Nation Congress in 2024. It's time for me to get involved and do what I can to serve the interests of ALL of the Osage Nation members no matter where we live throughout the country, to do what I can to restore the power and prestige of the Legislative Branch as the representative body of the Osage people with the ultimate control over how our money is spent on behalf of and on what is really needed for all the people who have an Osage Nation membership. We have to stop non-essential spending for the sake of current and future generations. Some decisions about what new projects we take on have to be left up to future generations who do have the right to have more choices than just to pay for the crushing debt arranged by the elected officials in the first eighteen years since the Osage Nation government took over in 2006 from the last Osage Tribal Council.

    If elected to the ON Congress, I fully intend to protect the Osage Minerals Estate (OME) under the ON Constitution as the "General Authority" and to uphold the provisions of the 1906 Allotment Act as amended not only because it is Federal law; it is also upheld in the Osage Nation governing Constitutional document in more than one place. As a Headright owner as well, I believe that those who are OME Shareholders will be more likely to protect the OME Trust for the Headright Beneficiaries than perhaps those who are NOT an OME Shareholder. I will NEVER FORGET that first and foremost, this is a FEDERAL OME Trust with FEDERAL Headright Trust Beneficiaries.
