A progress report on Saving the Mendota Sacred Sites in Minneapolis
Hi Folks,
Yesterday you would have been so proud of Linda and the others who presented
this resolution to the Senate. Really a wonderful job! Concise, professional
and touching. It was so suprising that it passed with absolutely no obstacles
and that is great! The problem is that it was referred to the Senate
Transportation Committee. We were hoping that they would pass it to the floor
but it looks like we have another go around with this. Look at the name of the
committee and that should give you some idea of what is ahead. Who would have
thought that we would get as far as it has and without the concerted effort of
the Warrior women (Linda and the others), it couldn't of happened. The other
reason is your help and prayers. Please hang in there for us. I know we have
asked for a lot of your time and resources but we can't quit now! We are so
close and we have come such a long way. Who would have thought it! I want you
to take a second and say a quick prayer or send a good intention to our sister
Linda. She has worked non stop for a long time now with no complaint. Let's
support her in everyway we can! Here's Linda.
Thank you,
Diane
Dear Friends,
Today we had the hearing before the Senate Govt Ops committee, the
resolution was passed unanimously. The resolution has been referred to the
Senate Transportation committee. They meet on Tues. and Wed. of next week.
(not much time left to act!) We need everyone who is a constituent of Senator
Carol Flynn to call her and ask her to hear this resolution or pass it to the
floor for a full Senate vote. (This is crucial for constituents) Also we need
phone calls and emails to everyone who sits on this committee and urge them to
support the resolution and ask Senator Flynn to hear the resolution or pass it
to the floor. (This is crucial too for everyone else) The following Senators
sit on this Committee;

Everyone can call or email these people but it really helps if their own
constituents contact them, If you have family or friends in any of these areas
please encourage them to call orEmail as soon as possible. The resolution # is
1658 protecting the Coldwater Spring area as traditional cultural property.
I'm sorry I keep saying just a few more days, but we just have to keep trying
and praying.
Senator Gary Laidig from Stillwater sits on this committee and will support
our efforts to get this resolution heard.
Pidamiya,
Love Linda
