Governor, I believe you have the power, influence and authority of spearheading the actualization of the proposal to amend the State Recognition Bill that also includes the adoption of the UN Declaration on Rights of Indigenous Peoples to protect the Abanaki tribe and other Native tribes.

That was a wonderful step towards realizing equality and justice to the Native tribes.

The issues with housing have to be addressed by special housing tribunal.

telemarketing fraud so rampant? The phone is increasingly being used "as a marketing tool and a vehicle for initial customer contact" (Michela, 1994, p. 556). Businesses make use of telemarketing applications in conducting political polling and market research, prospecting for new customers, making follow-ups on existing customers, advertising, raising charity funds, to mention but a few.
