Halito,
Tomorrow marks the beginning of Native American month, a time to celebrate the rich history and diverse cultures of the Choctaw people. So, let’s show our Tushka (warrior) spirit by letting your voice be heard and voting in November. I also would like to encourage you to attend our Powwow to experience and protect our vibrant culture and history.

This November is important, and I want to encourage all of you to exercise your right to choose your representatives in all levels of government. When we vote, we’re saying we care about what happens in our state, our country, our tribe, and our future.
