Members of Nez Perce Tribe seek to oust all of the Members/Officers of the Nez Perce Tribal Executive Committee (NPTEC) by Recall Petition. Signatures and Tribal Meetings have been organized to recall NPTEC Members/Officers.

Members of the Yankton Sioux Tribe blocked construction at North Point Recreation Area with their bodies Tuesday in a protest that will most likely send the long-delayed project back to court. In April, a federal judge ordered the state to replace soil from a Native American burial site discovered in May 2002. The state had been moving fill dirt at the recreation area to build a registration building, parking lot, fish-cleaning area and RV waste dump.

To prevent further destruction of ancestral burials and other sacred places, the Yankton Sioux Nation has begun an encampment at the Northpoint Recreational area and a media blitz to call attention to what is happening there.
