[Washington D.C.] On Thursday, June
20th, 2024, the US Senate passed the companion bill to HR 1240 virtually ensuring the
land illegally taken over 50 years ago by the
US Army Corps of Engineers would be returned to the Winnebago people here. “The
tribal council has been privileged to carry
this work forward and help send this bill to
President Biden’s desk.”, said Tribal Council Chairwoman Victoria Kitcheyan in her
statement following the momentous action.
The Winnebago Tribal Council prepared
a public announcement regarding the landmark bill’s passage. It was shared across
tribal social media and through local news
outlets. It is included below. An impromptu
celebration of the action was also held on
this date at the Big Screen area in downtown
Winnebago. Local drum groups, dancers
and singers came to help celebrate the
occasion. A full celebration will be planned
and held once the President’s signature has
been given. “54 years!” exclaimed one tribal
member during the day’s joyous activity.
They went on, “now we have to work to get
all the other lands we’ve lost back too.”
The Winnebago Land Transfer Act to be
Signed into Law
WINNEBAGO, NE – Today marks a
historical day for the Winnebago Tribe of
Nebraska as the United States Senate just
approved the Winnebago Land Transfer Act,
a bill to restore approximately 1,600 acres
of land to the Tribe. The bill now goes to
the White House where President Biden will
soon sign the bill into law.
“This is a truly historic moment for the
Winnebago Tribe as lands that were taken
from us over 50 years ago will soon be restored to the Tribe,” said Winnebago Chairwoman Victoria Kitcheyan. “Our ancestors,
including the late Louis LaRose, fought tirelessly to secure and protect our homelands.
We are honored to carry on their work and
help send this bill to the President in their
honor,” Chairwoman Kitcheyan continued.

HOCAK CULTURE CAMP HELD
On June 29th, Little Priest Tribal
College hosted a two-day Metal Smith
Workshop at the Ho-Chunk Village
Market. 20 attendees were shown how
to make Brooches through creating designs, stamping outlines and filing them
using hand tools such as hammers. To
complete the brooch, a disk sander was
used to smooth the project.

LPTC’s Public Library has concluded their Summer Reading Program.
Story times included exploring genres
that may be new to readers: Manga,
historical events and new/ unheard of
accomplished writers. Other arts & crafts
activities kept the youth busy.
[Winnebago, NE] During the week of
June 24th, 2024, HoChunk Renaissance
and friends hosted the youth of Winnebago
as it held this season’s culture camp here.
“It was a long week, but it was really good.”,
said Renaissance Director Lewis “Bleu”
St. Cyr. The staff of the department took
on the monumental challenge of providing
culturally relevant activities every day of the
week. Originally scheduled for two weeks
prior, the events were set forward to allow
the participants the opportunity to gain the
full weeks’ worth of activity and experience.
After a slow start due to extreme temperatures on Monday, the summer season
relaxed a little making the rest of the week’s
mainly outdoor activity bearable and fun.
One of the participants said, “I had a lot of
fun. It seemed to go by really fast though.”
The department had been planning the culture camp for months and despite the heat
of Monday, the week couldn’t have gone
better weather-wise.
With activities planned for each of the five
days, participants were treated to experiences seldom had at any other time during the
year – especially in groups where kids could
join in with their friends. Tribal dances, hoop
dancing, Kasu, beading, and even story
telling were among the numerous offerings
of the camp. The Winnebago Veteran’s Park
was home to most of the action. The park
is gearing up for the annual homecoming
celebration later in the year come July when
the tribe will host its 158th powwow.
Working in cooperation with the Winnebago Boys & Girls Club, the HoChunk Renaissance program also had many members of
the community involved with the schedule.

COMMUNITY
...Con’t. from front pg. LAND BACK
History
In the mid-1800s, the Winnebago people
were forcibly removed by the United States
Army from Wisconsin to Minnesota, Iowa,
South Dakota, and finally in 1865, to the Winnebago Indian Reservation in Nebraska and
Iowa. The 1865 treaty promised that land
was “set apart for the occupation and future
home of the Winnebago Indians, forever….”
In 1970, when the late James “Louis” LaRose
was serving as the Winnebago Chairman,
the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (“Army
Corps”) improperly and illegally condemned
approximately 1,600 acres of the reservation
in Iowa and Nebraska for a proposed recreation project, a project that never came
to fruition.
The Tribe turned to the court system to
defend its lands but initially lost in both the
Nebraska and Iowa district courts. The Tribe
appealed those decisions with the 8th Circuit
court, and eventually, the court found both
the Nebraska and Iowa condemnations were
illegal. Despite these victories, the court
did not have the authority to return the Iowa
lands to the Winnebago people due to a
technicality.
Congressional Action
After exhausting its remedies in the
court system, the Tribe began working with
Congress to restore the 1,600 acres taken
by the Army Corps. This effort resulted in
the development of the Winnebago Land
Transfer Act, which was first introduced in
September 2017. Since then, the Tribe has
made numerous DC advocacy trips to urge
Congress to approve the bill. However, for
reasons beyond the Tribe’s control, previous
bills never moved through the legislative
process.
The bill that will be signed by President
Biden, H.R. 1240, was introduced by Representative Randy Feenstra of Iowa and
cosponsored by the entire Nebraska and
Iowa Congressional Delegations as well as
Representative Sharice Davids — a member
of the Winnebago’s sister tribe, the HoChunk Nation. After being approved by the
House Committee on Natural Resources, the
House of Representatives passed the bill by
voice vote on February 5, 2024.
Over in the Senate, Senator Deb Fischer
(R-NE), along with Senators Pete Ricketts (RNE), Chuck Grassley (R-IA), and Joni Ernst
(R-IA), introduced an identical bill, S. 3230.
The Senate Committee on Indian Affairs
held a hearing on the bill, then subsequently
approved the House version of the bill by
unanimous consent. The full Senate then
approved the bill by unanimous consent on
June 16, 2024 sending it to the President for
his signature.
Next Steps
President Biden will soon sign the bill into
law. Subsequently, the Tribe will meet with
the Department of the Interior to discuss the
logistics of transferring the land, which will
be held in trust for the Tribe. Once officially
restored to the Tribe, the Winnebago Wildlife
and Parks Department will be responsible for
managing this land. The Tribe plans to use
the land for conservation and is committed
to improving the overall management of
the land.
The Winnebago Tribal Council is planning
to hold a recognition ceremony and a blessing at a site on the restored lands. Details
to be announced.
Thank Yous
The Winnebago people have waited for
more than 50 years to have the lands that
were wrongfully seized by the Army Corps
restored to the Tribe. The enactment of the
Winnebago Land Transfer Act is a testament
to the Winnebago peoples’ persistence,
determination, and commitment to being a
good neighbor. “The Tribal Council would
like to thank the Winnebago people for entrusting us to fight for this land that is forever
ours,” said Chairwoman Kitcheyan.
The Tribe will be forever grateful to Representative Randy Feenstra, Senator Deb
Fischer, Senator Chuck Grassley, Senator
Pete Ricketts, Senator Joni Ernst, Representative Sharice Davids, Representative
Mike Flood, Representative Zach Nunn, Representative Adrian Smith, Representative
Mariannette Miller-Meeks, Representative
Don Bacon, Representative Ashley Hinson,
the House Committee on Natural Resources,
the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs, and
the Department of the Interior for aikiruti,
standing arm in arm, with the Winnebago
through this momentous effort.

MISSOURI FLOOD WATERS RISE
By Brian Chamberlain
Photos by Brian Chamberlain / Garan
Coons
[WinnaVegas Casino / Resort] With torrential rainfalls to the north and to the east
of our region in previous days, the waters
of the Missouri River once again flowed forward reclaiming the channels it once filled
here. “WinnaVegas will close due to flooding
over the road leading to the casino.”, said
Winnebago Tribal Council Vice-Chairman,
Isaac Smith. On Tuesday, June 25th, the water levels rose enough to cover the highway
causing the business to halt operation for a
couple of days.
On the day prior, the Winnebago Tribal
Council commissioned drone footage from
Communications Officer, Garan Coons. That
video was captured and posted to all WTN
social media pages showing just how wide
reaching the flood waters were at that point.
Less than a day later the depths rose even
more claiming the highway to the casino
once again. “It’s pretty deep. But not like
2011.” Coons told the WIN.
The morning of June 25th is when the
road began to be covered by overflowing
river waters. Employees of WinnaVegas
were forced to evacuate the property by
9:00 am to avoid being trapped at the
casino. Woodbury County (Iowa) officials
took action to temporarily block access
to the casino just to the east. One county
official working that morning told the WIN
the waters were flowing heavily across the
concrete and travel was not allowed.
Winnebago Physical Resources staff
from Facilities, Roads, and Grounds crews
were shuttled to the casino later that morning. Along with their heavy equipment, dirt
work began to safeguard sensitive areas,
like diesel pumps, water storage lagoons,
and electrical hardware. Working quickly,
that crew was able to ensure no water
could reach those locations in case river
levels rose even higher. That scenario,
however, never happened. “I think we’re
pretty lucky this time.” said WTN Civil
Engineer, Ron Nohr, who was also on-site
during the day’s activity. Water never rose
high enough to enter or even threaten any
of the structures on the property.
Further up the river in nearby McCook
Lake, South Dakota, for example, those
areas received catastrophic flood damage.
The rivers, both Missouri and Big Sioux,
overflowed in significant amounts wiping
away entire neighborhoods of that small
community. The damage will take many
months to clear, and some places may
even be uninhabitable going forward.
Because the nature of the flooding was
not the same as 2011, the waters soon
began to fall after closure halted activity
at the casino on the 25th. By the late afternoon of June 27th, the road was no longer
flooded, the debris from the nearby fields
was cleared away, and the casino resumed
operations as normal. The General Manager of WinnaVegas, Tom Teesdale, told
the WIN, “We’re so very grateful for the
tremendous support from the tribe and its
departments. Their quick work made sure
our operations were never in jeopardy.”
...Con’t. from front pg. HOCAK CULTURE CAMP HELD
personalities all pitched in and helped deliver one amazing week. “We had a really good
time.”, said the nani of one of the participants after they attended the bonfire. That event
was held on Wednesday evening at the Big Screen in downtown Winnebago. There, the
whole community was welcomed as they gathered to give the entire event a big push. A
bonfire, smores, and round dancing were included during a picturesque evening.
The Winnebago Indian News was on hand throughout the week, and we have several
photographs to share both here in print and online via our social media. HoChunk Renaissance has also shared some of the pictures they captured during the 5-day camp. For
more information on this culture camp please see both of our Facebook pages, Winnebago
Indian-News and HoChunk Renaissance.
Great job this week, everyone!

Letter to the Editor
SUICIDE IN INDIAN COUNTRY PART 50
Do suicidal people cover up how they feel inside?
Yes – to themselves and others. Most often they don’t know where
the raging, desperate feelings they have come from, and do their best
to cover up and try to act “normally”. On a much smaller scale, we can
understand this by recalling times we went to work with the flu, and
carried on as usual without commenting on how we felt.
Most people have also had the experience of being in a heated, angry
argument with someone – they are red in the face and terribly upset –
when the phone rings. They cover up their angry emotions, and answer
with a calm and friendly “Hello”. Suicidal people cover up their strong
emotions too - sometimes up until the moment they kill themselves.
Does it take courage to kill oneself, or is suicide a coward’s way out?
Neither. People who are contemplating suicide are not debating large
issues of right and wrong, nor are they facing life bravely or “slinking
off” to die. The desperate anguish that results in suicide is not “taking
the easy way out”. Cruel jokes are sometimes made and angry words
said about suicides and their loved ones.
There would be an uproar if the same were said and done about any
other death. Dying from pneumonia is not cowardly or courageous; neither is suicide. The taboo causes people to look at suicide as a moral
issue rather than a health issue.
How many people leave suicide notes and why?
In the days the stigma was heavier, suicide notes were routinely destroyed so the death could be attributed to other causes. At one time,
coroners declared a suicide death only if the person left a note.
Only about one-third of the suicides leave notes. Researchers expected to find clues and explanations from suicide notes, but studies over
many years have shown that suicide notes are not particularly insightful.
One expert thinks if a suicidal person could write a meaningful note, he
would not have to kill himself.
Suicide notes fall into four categories. Most are loving communications
asking forgiveness and understanding. Some are angry and hateful
and directed at particular people. Some mix feelings of love and anger.
Still others are sets of instructions about possessions and funerals. In
this electronic age, suicides are increasingly leaving tape recorded
messages.
Is every suicide an act of anger or revenge?
No. Some people who complete suicide are feeling very angry – often
at people near to them. This anger may or may not be justified. Others
who kill themselves genuinely believe their families will be better off
without them, and perceive their deaths as being a benefit. Still others
feel abnormally guilty, ashamed and deserving of punishment.
A small number of people who kill themselves are delusional (out of
touch with reality), and may hear voices telling them to do so. Nonetheless, all suicides are seeking escape from unbearable emotional pain.
Some people kill others before killing themselves.

JESUS OUR SAVIOR
LUTHERAN OUTREACH
“Walking in the newness of life”
On this past Thursday, Americans across
the country celebrated many freedoms that
we share. However, with freedom comes
responsibilities. And with responsibilities
comes restrictions. Those who have won
our freedoms needed to be willing to be
disciplined as they prepared to serve their
fellow country men and women.
Members of the armed forces, police
and wildlife wardens all undergo a vigorous
training. Drill sergeants get in the faces of
the new recruits. Many new recruits cannot
handle this and drop out on the first day. This
type of training is preparing the future military
and peace officers in what they may very well
encounter as they stand up to ensure the
freedoms of others. Yes, even the freedom
to ‘peacefully’ yell in their face.
Each and every day, we have the freedom
to get on with our lives. The path that one
chooses to take over time becomes one’s
way of life. People fall into habits, some
good and some not so good. Such lifestyles
places one on a road that leads into one of
two directions.
The one walk, or path of life, leads away
from God and ultimately to destruction. The
other walk or path of life is referred to as
walking in the newness of life. This path of
life changes one’s ways.
The child of God begins his or her walk
when he or she is baptized. Creator God
places His sacred name on those who are
baptized in the name of the Father, and of
the Son - Jesus, and of the Holy Spirit.
By: Pastor Ricky Jacob
When one is baptized, one is united with
Christ Jesus. Jesus suffered and died so that
our slavery to sin was paid for in full. One
who is united with Jesus in his death is also
promised of being united with Jesus at the
time of the resurrection of the dead.
We learn of this truth from the words of
Paul, who wrote: ‘We were therefore buried
with him through baptism into death in order
that, just as Christ was raised from the dead
through the glory of the Father, we too may
live a new life’ [Romans 6:4 NIV].
Now one who believes in Jesus can no
longer continue to walk a life of defiance
to the ways of God. A child of God is led
by the Spirit of God. He or she walks a life
honoring God and is a blessing to all he or
she encounters.
God’s love is unconditional. However,
man’s response to God’s unconditional love
can in fact reject the blessings of that very
same unconditional love.
The apostle Paul writes to the saints, the
believers in Christ, at Rome: ‘In the same
way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive
to God in Christ Jesus. Therefore do not let
sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey
its evil desires. Do not offer the parts of your
body to sin, as instruments of wickedness,
but rather offer yourselves to God, as those
who have been brought from death to life;
and offer the parts of your body to him as
instruments of righteousness. For sin shall
not be your master, because you are not
under law, but under grace’ [Romans 6:1114 NIV]. By the grace of God - one walks in
the newness of life.
In Loving Memory...

Question of the Issue:
Tell us about your favorite perfumes & colognes and share an
experience about any of them, good or bad.
Garan: The ones that mask the powwow outfits smell. Haha jk … Axe
effect.
What ever happened to Patchouli Oil? When did that get cancelled? Reminds
me of powwow celebrations back in the 80s and 90s. I like to try out different
colognes but top three are GIO, Sauvage, and Versace Eros.
Brian: Ralph for women and Love Spell make me hungry! … and ask
about Cupcake and Josie spraying Emeraude on everyone. … hahaha
Tyler: Bath and Body Works’ Plum Moscato and Almond Harvest!!!!! It’s
discontinued now though :’) it reminds me of 2015-16. Probably have to buy
it from a reseller for triple the price. Seems like i use a different perfume
every year so VS Love spell reminds me of 2018 and Moschino Bubble gum
reminds me of 2022-23. I can smell the memo’ries lol
Kevin: Pierre Cardin is my favorite cologne. One time I got in my car, and
I was wearing it all proud. My girls got inside and said, How come it smells
like old lady in here?
Christina: Mine is the original Chanel Chance. I discovered it at the old
Younkers in the Sioux City mall.
Bethani: My favorite perfume of all time is the Viva La Juicy with Juicy
Couture. I remember the very first time I was able to afford to buy it for
myself. It just hit different and I have always been obsessed since day one!
I’d try new perfumes or take recommendations, but always end up buying
another Juicy Couture “just in case.”
Allison: One of my all-time favorite body sprays is Sweet Like Candy By
Ariana Grande. Bath and Body Works have a few seasonal sprays I like including Champaign Toast and Vanilla Bean Noel. They remind me of Christmas time.
FOOD REVIEW:
Siouxland Wing Stop
By: Tyler Snake
Recently, my son and I tested out the new Wing Stop location on Hamilton Blvd. The
new location in Sioux City was packed all throughout the opening month of April. I’ve
heard mixed reviews, so I finally tried it for myself; I got an 8-piece Mild boneless combo,
fries and lemonade. Most frown upon boneless but it’s my preference haha. My son got
the 4-piece BBQ strips. We shared the Cajun Fried Corn. As for my son’s opinion, he
loves any food. In my honest opinion, the fries are mid, I’d rather have Burger King fries.
The Cajun Fried Corn is overrated. BUT the wings were soo good. ((Shamelessly)) I’ve
been back at least 3-4 times since, really outing my ruined diet ha-ha. For those wanting
to try it out, beware of the wait time or call ahead to order. The restaurant is always busy,
especially during dining hours. For my rating I’d say it is a strong 3.5 it kept me coming
back but I’m saving a 5-star rating for the best meal I’ve ever had or even better wings.
EDITOR’S REVIEW:
A Heavy Dose of Mental Health
Movie Review: Inside Out 2
By Brian Chamberlain
Photos: (studio)
The movie theater industry has
surely taken a beating since 2020.
The pandemic caused the once
bustling theaters to become virtual
ghost towns at times. Ever since
those days the number of movies
I’ve watched at the theater has significantly dwindled. However, there
have been a few movies that drove
enough appeal to go back into the
darkness. This week we’re going to
review one of them. Our selection is
Disney/Pixar’s “Inside Out 2”.
The first Inside Out debuted in
2015 to tremendous success. The
children’s flick was centered around
lead character, Riley, who was
then about 11 years old. Riley was
beginning to feel certain emotions
that depicted her growing up and
those emotions lived as characters
in her mind. They are Joy, Sadness,
Fear, Anger, and Disgust. The early
story of the first movie was light on
dramatics for the screen life of Riley,
and the players in her mind did their
best to keep Riley on track as she
grew up.
Step forward now to 2024 and
the same group of characters are
shown to be in the mind of Riley
who has just turned 13. Riley is
now about to leave middle school
and enter the world of being a
teen. With the five main emotions
in tow, the alert is sounded as Riley
begins her journey into puberty.
From there several new characters
are introduced. Boredom, Anxiety,
Embarrassment, and Envy.
As the story unfolds, Riley faces
several mental challenges and lifestyle crossroads that are pretty typical of a young teenager. Joy and the
legacy crew find themselves once
again searching for ways to preserve the psyche of their girl, while
the newly introduced emotions vie
for control and presence in Riley’s
evolving world. Boredom, or Ennui,
has some good quips throughout the
show. Most of the characters play
their part well, but the subject matter does delve quite deep at times,
despite the movie being aimed at
children of a certain age.
What’s different about this sequel
is that in the original the story line
was clear. And while it was well performed, and the messaging was easy
to follow despite the though provoking
subject matter, in the sequel this was
not as much the case. The weight of
the psychological descriptions took
a front seat at times, when again, the
original did introduce hefty concepts
but was still able to wade through
them enough to keep the kiddies
entertained.
I do like that there is much wit and
forethought placed into the movie. It’s
just that the subjects became quite
heavy at times, which I feel detracted
from the story. Breaking box office
norms, Inside Out 2 is definitely going
to be on the top of lists for movies of
2024 – and rightfully so. I just wish
the production teams were able to
find the magic they captured so well
in the original.
I saw the movie with my granddaughters, and they seemed to like
it, but had more fun in the lobby to be
honest. On our world-famous HaazZaat! scale, Inside Out 2 is zoning in
on a solid 3 ½ Haazs. Excellent CGI
of course; everything you’d expect
from Pixar.

Winnebago Tribe Broadband Connectivity Project is the
Latest Project to Receive Permitting Assistance from the
Permitting Council
Permitting Council Press Office (media@permitting.gov)
WASHINGTON (May 31, 2024) – The
Permitting Council (Federal Permitting
Improvement Steering Council) is pleased
to announce the latest project to receive
permitting assistance through the FAST-41
program, the Winnebago Tribe Broadband
Connectivity Project. This $35 million project
aims to bring critically needed broadband
infrastructure to over 800 households, 46
businesses and 16 Tribal institutions in
Winnebago, Nebraska.
“I’m proud to welcome the Winnebago
Tribe Broadband Connectivity Project as
our third FAST-41 Tribal broadband project.” said Eric Beightel, Permitting Council
Executive Director. “The Permitting Council
is a critical piece of the Biden-Harris administration’s focus on accelerating the deployment of broadband to communities across
the country. Each project that receives our
permitting assistance benefits from improved transparency and efficiency during
the environmental review and permitting
process and we look forward to working with
the Winnebago Tribe to advance this critical
Tribal infrastructure project.”
If permitted this project will provide
broadband service to the Winnebago Reservation and adjacent communities to connect
residents with reliable and affordable highspeed internet. Project sponsors believe that
this project could transform everyday life in
the local community by providing access to
households, schools, businesses, community centers, and medical facilities, improving
the quality of life for hundreds who live and
work in and around the reservation.
The National Telecommunications and
Information Administration’s (NTIA) Tribal
Broadband Connectivity Program is providing funding for this project, which proposes
to install 235 miles of underground fiber,
connecting every household and business
within the Winnebago Reservation. The Winnebago Tribe’s funding was one of 23 grants
provided in the latest awards by the NTIA.

Broadband Project at Permitting.gov.

About the Permitting Council and FAST-
Established in 2015 by Title 41 of the
Fixing America’s Surface Transportation
Act (FAST-41) and made permanent in the
Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, the

and predictability of the federal environmental review and authorization process
for certain critical infrastructure projects.
The Permitting Council is comprised of the
Permitting Council Executive Director, who

of the Office of Management and Budget.
The Permitting Council coordinates federal environmental reviews and authorizations
for projects that seek and qualify for FAST41 coverage. FAST-41 covered projects
are entitled to comprehensive permitting
timetables and transparent, collaborative
management of those timetables on the
Federal Permitting Dashboard. FAST-41
covered projects may be in the renewable or
conventional energy production, electricity
transmission, energy storage, surface transportation, aviation, ports and waterways,
water resource, broadband, pipelines,
manufacturing, mining, carbon capture,
semiconductors, artificial intelligence and
machine learning, high-performance computing and advanced computer hardware
