Greetings Relatives/Frens/Humans, We are Blessed with another Nizhoni day of Peace. Ahe’hee/Much Appreciation to the Sacred, Holy Beings, and prays for Peace for All of Life on Mother Earth.
The Navajo Nation Council Budget & Finance Committee started their public hearings on Aug. 12, 2024, at the Crownpoint, N.M., Chapter. The next public hearing is today, 8.13.24, at the Ganado, Ariz., Chapter. According to the first hearing, which I listened to on the Navajo Nation Council YouTube Channel. I say listen because Speaker Crystalyne Curley failed again to have Navajo Nation Legislative Branch staff provide a view of the public hearing, which included a power point presentation by the Navajo Nation’s financial office.
I will continue to post more budget documents and so please continue to visit my blog, Marley Shebala’s Notebook. Ahe’hee/Much Appreciation for Keeping an Eye on Navajo Govt.
