CHAIRMAN’S SIGNING STATEMENT
3-MONTH EXTENSION OF CROW TRIBE FY2012 BUDGET (CLB12 - 03)

October 4, 2012

Pursuant to the authority vested in me by Article V, Section 8 of the Crow Constitution,
| have this day approved under protest the Act for the “Extension of the Fiscal
Year 2012 Tribal Budget for Three Months” passed by the Tribal Legislature in their
Special Session on October 2 as CLB12-03. This will allow the Tribe to operate under
an approved budget for the next 3 months, but | am hereby reserving the right to
disregard those parts of the Act that are clearly unconstitutional and to challenge them
in the Tribal Court.

Without an approved Tribal budget, the Tribe would have been forced to cut critical
services to Tribal members. So, when the Legislature finally convened a Special
Session on October 1, the Executive Branch Officials worked hard into the evening to
reach agreement on a revised FY2013 budget that addressed the Legislature’s biggest
concern — its own budget. However, the Legislative Branch leaders rejected our
attempts to achieve harmony, and the next day they proceeded to act completely
outside the Crow Constitution by passing an amended, partial-year “extension” budget.

To protect the Tribe, | have no choice but to approve their budget extension. But | am
also compelled to protest the Legislature’s unconstitutional actions. If nobody in the
Tribal government follows the rules laid out in our own Constitution, then the Crow
Tribe will sink into confusion and disarray that will cause long-lasting harm to the Tribe
and all Tribal members.

In passing CLB12-03, the Legislature committed several flagrant violations of the
Tribal Constitution, including:

(1) The Legislature has no power to amend a budget prepared by the
Executive Branch. According to the Constitution, they only have authority to “grant
final approval or disapproval of an annual budget prepared by the Executive Branch.”
If the Legislature disagrees with the budget prepared by the Executive Branch, then
their Constitutional duty is to disapprove it and request the Executive Branch to
prepare a revised budget. We prepared and submitted a revised budget to address
their concerns on October 1, but they ignored it and voted instead on an amended
budget that the Executive Branch did not prepare.

(2) | The Legislature has no power to pass an “extension” of last year’s
budget. The Constitution refers twice to an “annual budget,” not a partial-year
extension that will only cause the budget controversy to begin again after the Tribal
elections. In reality, the Act does not even extend the FY2012 budget, but instead
authorizes expenditure of 25% of the Executive Branch’s original proposed FY2013
budget, with various unlawful amendments and conditions. The Act also claims to
create a new Fiscal Year for the Tribe, which would begin on January 1, 2013. None
of these wild ideas and unprecedented actions are authorized by the Constitution.

(3) The Act claims to prohibit the Tribal Court from reviewing the Act’s
constitutionality. However, the Legislature does not have any power to take away the
Tribal Court’s authority in Article X of the Constitution to decide whether legislation is
unconstitutional. Otherwise, the Tribal Court’s most important constitutional power
would be meaningless, because the Legislature could simply prohibit the Court from
reviewing any unconstitutional legislation by including this type of condition. | view this
as the Legislature’s admission that its Act cannot pass constitutional muster, and a
desperate attempt to avoid review by the only body that has ultimate authority to
determine whether the Tribal Government is following the Constitution.

(4) | The Act requires that any revenue received by the Tribe beyond the
amounts authorized for expenditure during this 3-month “extension” budget would be
held in trust by the United States. Besides the lack of authority in the Tribal
Constitution, there is no federal law authorizing the Tribe’s general fund revenues to
be held in trust by the federal government. This is moving in the opposite direction of
Tribal self-determination, and we doubt that the BIA will be willing to undertake this
additional trust responsibility.

(5) | The revenues for the partial-year budget approved by the Legislature
include payments related to pending coal development agreements. However, the Act
claims to reserve authority for the Legislature to redirect those important revenues that
would provide the actual cash for the authorized expenditures. The Legislature does
not seem to understand that a budget on paper does nothing to create the money
necessary in order to make expenditures. This maneuver violates the Legislature’s
duty to “grant final approval or disapproval” of mineral development agreements
negotiated by the Executive Branch.

(6) As for the specific amendments that the Act makes to the FY2013
budget prepared by the Executive Branch (after reducing it to 25% for the 3-month
period):

(a) | Added $206,000 to the Legislature’s budget for the 3-month
period, making the amount equal to 25% of last year’s $1.55 million.
These extra funds would come from the budget to pay our water
attorneys, who were instrumental in having Congress enact the $460
million Crow Water Rights Settlement Act.

The revised budget that we proposed on Monday would have given the
Legislature the full amount of last year’s annual budget without reducing
the compensation for the Tribe’s attorneys. We were willing to agree to
that if the Legislature passed a regular FY2013 budget prepared by the
Executive Branch, but | cannot agree to follow this amendment for an
“extension” budget passed by an unconstitutional process. Instead, as
provided in the Constitution, the Legislature will receive funding during
this 3-month period based on the Constitutional requirement that they be
paid on an “hourly rate basis” for time actually served during their
Sessions.

(b) | Added $50,000 to the Judicial Branch budget for the 3-month
period. Again, the Executive Branch’s revised proposal would have
given this level of budget authority to the Tribal Courts for the full FY2013,
but again, | cannot honor this unconstitutional change.

(c) | Added $200,000 back pay for the 107" Committee for the period
in 2011-2012 when their weekly meeting stipend was reduced to $200
because of a Tribal revenue shortfall. Under the Constitution, the 107"
Committee serves at the pleasure of the Chairman. Rather than forcing
me to take this unprecedented action, we would prefer to add this money
to the monthly payments that all our Elders receive.

Therefore, my signature approving CLB12-03 is made under protest for all the reasons
stated above.

The extension budget Act as approved authorizes the expenditure of $9,005,437 on
Executive Branch programs during the 3-month period ending December 31, 2012.

The Executive Branch will be continuing to attempt to resolve the Tribal Budget with
the Legislature in a way that is consistent with the Tribal Constitution. We plan to
prepare and submit another annual budget for approval or disapproval by the
Legislature as provided in the Constitution.

DATED this 4 t day of October, 2012.
