The new post is titled:

Hoopa Leader Haley Hutt: Klamath Deals/Legislation have an Indigenous
historical context

Here's how the post begins:

In an Op_Ed published in the Two Rivers Tribune, Hoopa
Tribal Council member Haley Hutt has - for the first time we know of -
placed the Klamath Deals and the Merkley-Thompson Bill that would
authorize, implement and fund them - into an Indigenous historical
perspective.

Hutt speaks of her recent visit to Washington DC where -
among other things - she got to meet President Obama.

It includes the following comment on the question of editorial
independence - or lack of editorial independence - of Klamath River
Basin tribal newsletters:

These other tribal newspapers/newsletters are not editorially
independent; content is closely controlled by tribal bureaucrats under
the direction of the respective tribal councils. KlamBlog thanks and
applauds the Hoopa Tribe and congratulates the Hoopa People on being
confident enough to support and fund an editorially independent
newspaper. We believe editorial independence best serves the Hoopa
People, the River, and Klamath Salmon.

You can read Haley Hutt's editorial and the full post - and post a
comment about them - at www,KlamBlog.blogspot.com.
