It just never happened tbh

Not like there was a campaign for this either as a good chunk of the folks I know on the rez are a bit apathetic to the tribal government (that changed a bit with covid of course). Would not surprise me if this is the first time some have heard of the role, though I'm sure folks were made aware when the last speaker got into a scandal. Nice that this has happened and it's great to see more of the younger gens take note on the tribal government and hopefully reform it for the better.
