Council Bills presented included an Election Ordinance and approval to distribute a form to establish a list of tribal voters open to tribal election candidates. The Chief and Council have worked over the last several months to develop reform that increases transparency so that every action taken brings honor and pride to Choctaw people.

The Council Bills enacted: Campaign Finance Reporting requirements; The right for information on all candidates for Chief and Council to be placed in the Biskinik; The right of tribal members to share or keep private their personal info in voter communication, and Allow watchers to see when absentee ballots are received and when they are counted. This is just the beginning of things we need to focus on for reform. We will continue to define and refine as we continue to strive to be fair and transparent for all. Letters of consideration were presented recommending appointment of Margaret Jackson and reappointment of Judy Ogle, Kay Green, and Jane Parent to the Choctaw Nation Election Board.
