Statement of Effect
Oneida Nation, Recognizing Climate Change as a Long-Term Threat to our Core Values
Summary
This resolution seeks to endorse the essential elements of the Paris Agreement, an agreement
reached between various parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change
(“Convention”) to combat climate change by limiting long-term temperature changes, decreasing
shares of carbon emissions, sharing mitigation strategies, protecting known carbon sinks, pursuing
creative approaches to limit emissions, reporting with transparency, staying informed on the best
available technologies and assessing global progress. This resolution further seeks a directive that
the Nation’s Energy Team work with the Oneida Business Committee to finalize a Strategic
Energy Plan that integrates the essential elements of the Paris Agreement and adopt policies
necessary to achieve the goals established therein.
Submitted by: Kristen M. Hooker, Staff Attorney, Legislative Reference Office
Date: January 2, 2019
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Office
Climate change poses a serious threat to the health and inherent existence of Indigenous Peoples
and their Treaty rights as affirmed by the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous
Peoples. The Wisconsin Initiative on Climate Change Impacts forecasts that by 2050:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
The average annual temperature will have increased by six (6) degrees Fahrenheit;
Peak temperatures will reach 110-112 degrees Fahrenheit;
Wisconsin will experience twenty (20) additional days above ninety (90) degrees
Fahrenheit;
Average annual precipitation will increase by two (2) inches;
Rainfall frequency and intensity will increase;
Snowfalls will be heavier; and
Flooding will be more persistent.
On December 12, 2015 parties to the Convention reached a landmark agreement to combat climate
change and to accelerate and intensify the actions and investments needed for a sustainable low
carbon future. This landmark agreement, entitled the Paris Agreement, which went into effective
on November 4, 2016, brings all nations into a common cause to undertake ambitious efforts to
combat climate change and adapt to its effects, with enhanced support to assist developing
countries to do so. Its central aim is to strengthen the global response to the threat of climate
change by keeping a global temperature rise this century well below two (2) degrees Celsius above
pre-industrial levels and to pursue efforts to limit the temperature increase even further to 1.5
degrees Celsius. Additionally, the agreement aims to increase the ability of countries to deal with
the impacts of climate change, and at making finance flows consistent with a low GHG emissions

and climate-resilient pathway. To date, 184 of 197 Parties to the Convention have signed the Paris
Agreement.
On October 8, 2018 the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change issued a special report on the
impacts of global warming, calling for urgent large-scale changes by governments, businesses and
individuals. Yet, the U.S. Government and its current presidential administration continue to
discount the causes and consequences of climate change.
The Creation Story acknowledges that the Sky World – Yohutsya>kehlo=l& - is a sacred place. The
Oneida Nation recognizes that adequate response to the threat of climate change requires action
by all governments, including Tribal, national, state and local governments. This resolution seeks
to endorse the essential elements of the Paris Agreement, which are to limit long-term temperature
changes, decrease carbon emissions, communicate mitigation strategies, protect known carbon
sinks, pursue creative approaches to limit emissions, have transparency in reporting, stay informed
on the best available technologies and periodically assess progress. In addition, this resolution
directs that:
•
•
•
The Energy Team define and integrate climate adaptation and mitigation solutions into the
Nation’s Strategic Energy Plan;
The Business Committee work with the Energy Team to finalize and empower the Nation’s
Strategic Energy Plan; and
The Business Committee work with the Energy Team to adopt the polices necessary to
achieve the goals established in the Strategic Energy Plan.
This analysis does not include a review of the Paris Agreement. In addition, this analysis assumes
that the resolution is not asking permission to enter into the Paris Agreement, but is seeking an
endorsement of the Agreement’s essential elements and a directive to develop strategies in
accordance therewith.
Conclusion
Adoption of this resolution would not conflict with any of the Nation’s laws.

Describe the purpose, background/history, and action requested:
On November 6, 2018, we met with a student from the Menominee College who wanted to do a project with
Yukwatsistay^. A discussion on programming and setting goals.
One of the goals was to write a proposal to obtain a van for our office. The research and application process from
Shakopee Mdewakanton Nation requires that we obtain a resolution support letter from the Oneida Nation.
This is why we are requesting the Business Committee at this time to support Yukwatsistay^ with a resolution
written letter of support to attach to the application for our request to Shakopee.
Shakopee has grant request guidelines, one of the guidelines state and require; Organizations located on
reservations: include a tribal council resolution.
We have also submitted the proposal that will be going to Shakopee at this time.
We appreciate your time on this matter, thank you for helping us acquire the needed documentation for
Shakopee's application process.

Yukwatsistay^ Donation Request for 15 passenger van
Who we are
Yukwatsistay^ is a 501 (C) 3 non-profit group of volunteers under the umbrella of Dar June
comprised of Oneida community members concerned with the increasing numbers of opiate
related deaths and overdoses in the area. It was formed to start preliminary action by getting
people talking about it. Our volunteer staff provides their own transportation to helping those
affected by opiate abuse and other drug and alcohol related addictions. The intent of our service
is to provide support acting as liaisons between the addicted and those providing addiction and
recovery services. Often this is done by advising those affected by addiction towards the proper
channels needed for beginning or continuing recovery. The activity we participate in is providing
transportation for an individual by removing them from an addiction related circumstance and
bringing them to a safe environment at our base of operations. From there we can assist with
guidance towards the next steps they choose for self-improvement and recovery. A secondary
activity we contribute is community outreach by way of continuous public notice and planned
informative events. These organized events are to keep the community aware of our addiction
epidemic and the service we can offer to those affected. The staff consists entirely of recovering
addicts of various afflictions not limited to alcohol, opiates and stimulants.
Organizational History
Started October 15, 2017. Began with a sacred fire and the erection of a Tee Pee at the corner of
Hwy 54 and County Highway U in downtown Oneida.
Grand Opening October 27, 2018 located 431 Hillcrest Drive, Green Bay WI. 54313
Began when a community member overdosed and passed away. That’s when Yukwatsistay^
decided enough is enough and that we were going to try to do something about bringing
awareness to the epidemic.
Mission Statement
Yukwatsistay^ supports Oneida Community members affected by addictions in their desire to
bring hope, create awareness and promote healing and belonging by means of reconnecting with
culturally based traditional values and teachings.
Vision Statement
A sustainable, culturally, healthier & stronger reconnected community.
Values
Respect, love compassion, integrity, confidentiality, pride in tradition/cultural healing, strength,
optimism, commitment, loyalty.

Reason for Donation Request
To provide transport services to the Oneida community that are affected by addiction. Currently
Board members provide transport services with their own vehicles. A reliable vehicle is needed
to continue to provide transportation to individuals and their families facing addiction. Our
program is rapidly expanding, and a van is needed to continue to provide services on a broader
range to the rapidly growing clientele. By offering assistance to those affected by drug and
alcohol addiction, we can create awareness and encourage recovery.
Inputs - Van
o Our organization attends ceremonies, transports individuals participating in
AODA services and programs, and travels to events within and around the upper
Midwest area. A large van is needed to continue to provide services on a larger
scale, and to continue to transport individuals and their families suffering from
addiction to find the help and support they need.
o We are currently collaborating with many other organizations to help connect the
individuals in need with the proper support and resources available. Some groups
we are currently working with: Dar June Group, AIDS Resource Center of
Wisconsin, The Brown County Task Force, Oneida Tribal Action Plan (TAP), and
independent individuals within the Oneida and surrounding communities.
Outputs - Services provided
o While the members are happy to provide transport services, they are in need of a
reliable vehicle. Currently the all-volunteer staff are using personal vehicles as
the only method of transportation for providing immediate assistance to
individuals seeking support.
o Each week we serve and transport 20-30 individuals and their families suffering
from addiction.
o We are not the treatment providers, we are the liaison for the individuals suffering
from addiction and the treatment providers.
o We will be able to transport individuals suffering from addiction to whichever
treatment facilities of their choice.
Outcomes - Result of having van
o Initial - Continuation of current level of service which is providing immediate and
compassionate assistance to those affected by addiction who are seeking to
extricate themselves from a situation that leads to continued self-destructive
behavior.
o Intermediate - Increased staff participation by reducing personal expenses due to
personal vehicle maintenance costs. Increased client participation by having a
dependable option for those affected by addiction when seeking help towards
recovery.
o Long-term - Overall reduction of overdose incidents in the local Oneida
community. Overall reduction of addiction related behavior through proactive
awareness. Establishing a credible option that provides direct assistance for
recovery seekers in despair and persisting to be economically viable for the
volunteers.
Public Packet
38 of 130
Evaluation - Tracking
o
We currently accommodate 20-30 contacts per week and expect to increase this
level of service up to 35-45 with this van as a supporting resource. This projection
improves the success rate by 75% and most importantly the van will enable the
program to be sustainable. Our clients are given complete privacy and anonymity
within the program therefore the accounting numbers are limited to dates, times
and gender.

These amendments comply with the Oneida Business Committee directive established by
resolution BC-09-26-18-C that all Boards, Committees and Commissions of the Nation;
excluding the Oneida Business Committee or standing committees of the OBC and Tribal
corporations, amend their bylaws to comply with the requirements established by the

The bylaws provide a framework for the operation and management of the board to govern
the standard procedures regarding the way the board conducts its affairs, including: the
appointment of persons to the board, the membership qualifications, duties and
responsibilities of both members and officers, terms and filling vacancies of members,
selection of officers, establishment of expectations of members, maintenance of official
records, stipends, termination process, required training, and how the bylaws are amended.
The amendments were directed by the OBC in a regularly scheduled OBC meeting of
September 12, 2018 with the direction to update qualifications to address the issue of
understanding hearing authorities and responsibilities. The amendments also address
changes required by the amended Boards, Committees and Commissions law established
by resolution BC-09-26-18-C.
The Oneida Personnel Commission (OPC) was created by the General Tribal Council to
protect against nepotism and enforce Oneida and Indian preference in hiring. The OPC

Preference and nepotism in the selection of the Nation’s employees and to protect those
employees from inconsistent and unfair treatment by:
(1) Protecting against issues of nepotism;
(2) Enforcing Oneida and Indian preference;
(3) Hearing and deciding appeals of disciplinary action filed by employees of the Nation;
and
(4) Carrying out all other powers and duties authorities delegated by the laws of the
Nation, including but not limited to the Oneida Personnel Policies and Procedures.

SECTION 4. AMENDMENTS
This section details the changes to the bylaws from the previous bylaws adopted by the Oneida Business
Committee on April 28, 2010.
A. ARTICLE I. AUTHORITY
a. A section was added restricting the OPC from the following activities [see Article I. 13(b)].:
• (1) entering into contracts
o The OPC is no longer authorized to hire staff and therefore will no
longer have a need to enter into any contracts.
• (2) creating policy or legislative rules
o The OPC can recommend policy or legislative changes to existing
employment related laws or request laws be created by the Legislative
Operating Committee; however, the role of creating and adopting policy,
legislative rules and laws has been delegated to the Legislative Operating
Committee by the General Tribal Council through the Legislative
Procedures Act.
• (3) evaluating or rating candidates on criteria qualifications unrelated to
Oneida/Indian preference, nepotism, conflicts of interest, veteran status and
physical capacity requirements.
o OPC evaluation will be limited to items for which the OPC was created
including Indian Preference, nepotism and conflicts of interest, as well as
ensuring candidates receive a fair evaluation for veteran’s status and
physical capacity. The Personal Policies and Procedures do authorize the
OPC to evaluate candidates during the interview process [see PPP,

(B)Hiring Procedure, (2) Hiring Procedures, (g) Candidate Interviews];
but the Policies and Procedures do not specify how that evaluation will
take place. This provision of the bylaws clearly defines the interview
factors that will be evaluated by the OPC.
The number of members was reduced from twelve to fifteen (12-15) down to five (5)
members with the ability of the Oneida Business Committee Support Office to select Pro
Tem members in the event of an incumbent member’s recusal based on conflict of
interest [see Article I. 1-5(a)].
A provision was added prohibiting members from being employed by the Nation [see
Article I. 1-5(d)(3)].
• The previous bylaws only restricted OPC members from working for HRD,
serving on any advocacy group (department) or any other recognized hearing
body. Maintaining employment with the Nation and serving on the OPC may be
problematic due to the fact that employment screenings, interviews and grievance
hearings are all held during the work day and the OPC members must be able to
attend.
A replacement member is now appointed to fulfill the unexpired term [see Article I. 15(c)(3)]. Previous appointments filling a vacancy served a full term.
A minimum age requirement of twenty-one (21) years of age was established by the
amendments [see Article I. 1-5(d)(2)].
• This change supports the potential members time to gain the necessary
supervisory experience and work experience to effectively perform the duties of
the OPC.
A requirement was added requiring a minimum of two (2) years supervisory experience
in addition to hiring experience, an Associate’s Degree, or equivalent experience or
education [see Article I. 1-5(d)(6)].
Additional duties and responsibilities new to these bylaws include:
• Uphold all laws and policies of the Nation, including but not limited to the
Boards, Committees and Commissions law;
• Conduct grievance hearings in accordance with the Oneida Personnel Policies
and Procedures and the Oneida Judiciary Rules of Civil Procedure. If a conflict
exists between the Oneida Personnel Policies and Procedures and the Oneida
Judiciary Rules of Civil Procedure, the Oneida Personnel Policies and Procedures
shall govern [see 803.4-6]. Appeals from OPC decisions to the Judiciary shall be
governed by the Oneida Code of Laws, Title 8. Judicial System which includes
multiple laws that govern the Judiciary.
• Exclusively use the official e-mail address provided by the Nation upon
appointment to the OPC to conduct business, electronically, on behalf of the
OPC. [see Article I. 1-5(e)].
o The requirement to use the official e-mail address provided by the Nation
for all commission communication is contained in the Boards,
Committees and Commissions law [see O.C. Chapter 105.14-3].

• Dress Code. A dress code was added to the bylaws that requires OPC members
to be well groomed and dressed in business casual attire when conducting
activities of the OPC [see Article I. 1-6(e)(5)].
h. Additional requirements were added related to terminated members. Members who are
terminated will not be able to apply for re-appointment to the OPC for at least five (5)
years following the termination. This provision will begin following the reestablishment
of the board [see Article I. 1-6(a)].
i. Required trainings to be delivered by HRD and the Oneida Judicial System related to the
Oneida Code of Laws, the applicant screening process, participating in interviews and the
hearing / grievance process are included in the bylaws. OPC members must complete the
training prior to participating in any screenings, interviews and/or grievance hearings.
Additionally, after serving on the OPC for one year, all OPC members will be required to
accumulate a minimum of eight (8) hours of training annually related to the required
training, or review annually the lessons and material connected with the required
trainings. Training records will kept on file with the OPC. The previous version of the
bylaws did not list required training and referred instead to an OPC Training Plan [see
Article I. 1-7].
B.
ARTICLE II. OFFICERS
a. The treasurer position was removed, and duties were assigned to the secretary position.
b. Additional duties were assigned to the chairperson to include submittal of annual and
semi-annual reports to GTC and submission of quarterly reports to the OBC [see Article
II. 2-2].
c. Additional duties were assigned to the secretary to work with the chairperson to notice
regular and emergency meetings, act as a custodian of the records, attend to or ensure
proper attendance to all correspondence and present to the OPC all official
communications received by the OPC. The Business Committee Support Office staff has
agreed to assist the Secretary of the OPC with budgetary duties [see Article II. 2-4(g)] as
established by the Budget Management and Control law [see O.C. Chapter121].
d. The budgetary and sign off authority and travel section is new to these bylaws based on
requirements in the amended Boards, Committees and Commissions law. This
requirement creates accountability related to board action related to travel and authority
to make budgetary decisions. Attendance at budget meetings is a new requirement and
such attendance is not eligible to receive a stipend [see Article II. 2-7].
e. The OPC is no longer authorized to hire personnel. The OPC will work with the
Business Committee Support Office staff and Human Resources Department staff to
assist with budgetary requirements, training and scheduling of employee interviews and
grievance hearings [see Article II. 2-8].
C.
ARTICLE III. MEETINGS
a. The requirement to establish a schedule of meetings for the upcoming year was removed
in these amendments. The bylaws do include a regular meeting schedule and detail that
meetings will be determined by the OPC [see Article III. 3-1].

d. A roll call was added to the order of business and approval of the agenda,
correspondence, and other sections were removed [see Article III. 3-5].

a regular meeting.
f. The use of e-polls that follows the procedure established by the Boards, Committees and

g. The section related to standard operating procedures [see Article III. 3-9 of previous OPC
bylaws] was removed. Guidance related to standard operating procedures appears in the

Describe the purpose, background/history, and action requested:
Background:
On September 26, 2018, the O.B.C. adopted resolution 09-26-18-G Authorizing Use of $1,500,000 from the
Economic Development, Diversification and Community Development Fund for the Purposes of
Providing a 120-Day Bridge Loan to OAHC at an Interest Rate of LIBOR Plus 1%.
On December 20, 2018, at the Oneida Nation's Skenandoah Complex, Mr. Robert Barton provided me a check
payable to the Oneida Nation, in the amount of $1,510,644.35. The check was immediately submitted to Oneida
Accounting. The amount is representative of $1,500,000 for the original loan, and accrued interest of $10,644.35,
from October 5, 2018, through December 20, 2018.
The Oneida Airport Hotel Corporation has closed their financing package for the renovations of the hotel and are
ready and eager to begin construction.
