  • 1 Testimony of Tom Wooten, Chairman, Samish Indian Nation
    Testimony of Tom Wooten, Chairman, Samish Indian Nation House Natural Resources Subcommittee on Indian, Insular and Alaska Native Affairs Legislative Hearing on H.R. 2320, the Samish Indian Nation Land Conveyance Act of 2017 November 15, 2017 Introduction Good morning Chairman LaMalfa, Ranking Member Torres, and Members of the Subcommittee. My name is Tom Wooten, Chairman of the Samish Indian Nation (“Tribe”), a federally recognized Indian tribe based in Anacortes, Washington, in the San Juan Islands. The Tribe is comprised of approximately 1,500 citizens. Thank you for this opportunity to testify today on H.R. 2320, the Samish Indian Nation Land Conveyance Act of 2017. H.R. 2320 would provide our Tribe with a small land base that will enable our tribal government to provide basic services to our citizens, address tribal government administrative needs, and give the Samish people more opportunities to participate in our traditional ways of life. On behalf of the Tribe, I extend our tremendous thanks to Congressman Rick Larsen for introducing H.R. 2320. This is the third time Rep. Larsen has introduced this bill. Our quest to obtain a land base for our people has been an extremely long and difficult road, and we greatly appreciate his commitment to assist the Samish Nation in rebuilding our community. I also want to thank Anacortes Mayor Laurie Gere and the City Council of Anacortes for their support and partnership, and for working with us over the past 14 years under a memorandum of agreement for mutual cooperation. I also would like to thank San Juan County Chair Rick Hughes and the County Board, Skagit County Chair Ron Wesen and County Commissioners, as well as our local state delegation for their support of H.R.

  • 1 H.R. 2961 Response of Brian Cladoosby, Chairman of the Senate
    H.R. 2961 Response of Brian Cladoosby, Chairman of the Senate, Swinomish Indian Tribal Community, to Additional Questions Questions from Representative Paul Cook 1. At the hearing, you indicated that as the Chairman of the Swinomish Indian Tribal Community (SITC) you do not support H.R. 375. Could you explain why the SITC does not support H.R. 375? The premise of this question is factually inaccurate. I testified that the Swinomish Indian Tribal Community neither supports nor opposes H.R. 375 because SITC does not have a Carcieri problem. This exchange can be viewed at the 54 minute, 56 second mark of the hearing webcast as maintained on the Committee’s webpage. As retrieved on June 17, 2019, the URL for this exchange is https://youtu.be/I9COgMJj86U?t=3236. 2. Do you agree that Samish is a federally recognized Indian tribe? If not, please explain the basis for your response. I agree that the Samish Indian Nation is a federally recognized Indian tribe by virtue of the Final Determination to Acknowledge the Samish Tribal Organization as a Tribe made by Assistant Secretary – Indian Affairs Ada Deer on November 8, 1995.1 However, it is important to note that the Samish Indian Nation was not recognized as a successor to the historic Samish Tribe. To the contrary, its claim to be a successor to the historic Samish Tribe was specifically rejected in the recognition proceedings. See: - Greene v. Lujan, Order Granting Federal Defendants’ Motion for Partial Summary Judgment at 10 (No. C89-645Z, W.D. Wash. Sept. 19, 1990) (Samish Indian Nation, then known as the Samish Indian Tribe of Washington, is precluded by United States v.

  • Welcome to the Current!
    Welcome to the Current! Well, here comes Fall! Summer is slowing down and the cooler air is coming in. Leaves are starting to change here and there....and the rain is back. Make sure you come and check out the Park during this cool, sometimes wet season - it is a great place to visit rain or shine! This month in the Current learn about the bridge painting project happening now, a recap of our summer programs and some more history of the Park! Across the bridge by Elle Tracy Photo by Cindy Elliser Beginning in August, 2019, the Washington State Department of Transportation began a two-year project to restore and repaint the Deception Pass bridge – the only link for Whidbey Island residents on an off the island, unless, of course, you have a jet at your disposal. The existing paint work was completed more than 20 years ago, and with salt, wind and wear, the corrosion repair and paint work is necessary to support the resident and tourist traffic, estimated to be about 20,000 vehicles daily. Then there’s the foot traffic…. The temporary metal poles you see rising from the exterior barriers, support containment tarps under the bridge that prevent repair debris from dropping into the water. Containment tarps, photo by Cindy Elliser The project will shut down in the late fall for the winter, to begin again in the spring of 2020. Completion of the work is scheduled for fall of 2020. During work periods, you’ll hear unusual noise during the day, and quieter work noise overnight, when the bridge span is reduced to one lane of traffic.
