Marie Lopez-Stone
Secretary
Listen to your own Self. If you listen to that Self within, then you will find the Truth.

As your tribal secretary you can expect me to work for the concerns you’ve conveyed that are priorities for you & your families.

  • Financial Accountability that operates with clearcut budgets, reduces frivolous spending and opens the books for full disclosure.
  • Dispute Resolution for all issues including shunning, enrollment and employee satisfaction supported by a sound judicial system.
  • Human Resource Management to ensure job enrichment, fair hiring, enhanced benefits and the limitation of legal liabilities.
  • Elections with Absentee Ballot to ensure that all tribal members' input is valued and counted in the election process.
  • Separation of Politics from our Businesses practices to remove political influences from effective business operations.
  • Competitive Contract Bidding to ensuring fairness and remove monopolies on tribal business.
  • Constitutional Reform so, as members, we have self-rule and a voice in how our government is run.
  • Performance Measurement Systems throughout all departments to deliver first class services to all tribal members.
  • Member Satisfaction Measurement Survey to measure how well the WTC is serving its members.

    As your tribal secretary I will work for You the members, not the council or the investors. You can expect to have all meeting minutes documented and published. This may sound trivial to you, yet it demonstrates a record of all decisions on all tribal business and a record of each council member’s position on matters. When you cast your vote wouldn’t you want to know how they voted to see if their values align with your values? Of course we would! Our council members will have an open door policy and the ability to defend their choices political or otherwise.
