BIA backs Northern Cheyenne council's vote to remove president

The Bureau of Indian Affairs is supporting the Northern Cheyenne Tribal Council's decision earlier this month to remove the tribe's president, who still maintains the controversial vote violated a tribal court decision.

In a letter to the council, the BIA's Northern Cheyenne Reservation Superintendent, Michael Addy, officially recognized the council's 9-1 vote to remove former President Jace Killsback on Oct. 5.
