CN tribal council says goodbye to 6 members

Members of the Cherokee Nation Tribal Council held a short regular meeting on Monday during which six members, attending their final session, gave short farewell addresses.

Counilors Julia Coates, Cara Cowan Watts, Lee Keener, Jodie Fishinghawk, Janelle Fullbright and chair Tina Glory-Jordan will officially vacate their seats when new members of the council are sworn in on Friday.

Due to the change of membership and the previous regular meeting being less than two weeks prior on July 30, there was no new business on the final agenda. However, the agenda was amended to include four items. All were passed unanimously.
