Summary
At a Jan. 12 special Rules Committee meeting, members unanimously agreed to forward two items from the Health Committee and two items from the Education Committee to the full Cherokee Nation Tribal Council for consideration later the same day; the items themselves were not described in the transcript.
On Jan. 12 the Cherokee Nation Rules Committee unanimously approved motions to forward two items passed out of the Health Committee and two items from the Education Committee to the full Tribal Council for consideration tonight.
Councilwoman Sasha Black Fox Qualls moved “to approve the 2 items passed out of the health committee meeting that are on the handout provided and move to full council tonight,” and the Presiding Speaker recorded a motion and a second before approving the referral by unanimous consent. Councilwoman Candessa Teehee moved to forward items C and D from the Education Committee; that motion was also approved by unanimous consent with no opposition recorded.
The transcript does not identify the substantive contents of the health or education items, who seconded each motion, or any recorded roll-call vote totals. The committee’s action was limited to forwarding the items; no final council decisions or substantive debate on the items themselves were included in the record.
Those measures will appear on the full Tribal Council agenda later tonight for further consideration and any formal votes.
