    Please send me a letter on the history of the Chinook Indian Nation by Stanley Speaks. Being a member of the Chinook Indian Nation I have a right to read this information. How dare the government just take away what is rightfully ours? Almost everyday I see things that show our tribe existed in history....for example..Chinook Salmon, Chinook Helicopter, Chinook Pass, and Chinook Park in Ocean Shores near my house...and TONS more. My descendants and my current tribe members and family deserve to be recognized from the federal government!!! Reinstate our tribe now!!!

    I can see items from the Chinookan people at our county museum yet the federal government still denies them recognition and it upsets me.

    Please restore the Chinook Nation. There is every moral reason to do this, none to deny it.

    I married into the Chinook Family 48 years ago, I have two Chinook sons and seven Chinook Grandchildren. They know who they are and thier history. It is time for the US to Right the Wrong. The US marches into countries all over the world to right wrongs done by other governments, and yet they let the wrongs done to the Chinook go on and on. Wake up and do what should have been done when you came to their land and took what was theirs. Restore their rights now!

    Please recognize this proud nation who saved the Lewis and Cark expedition and whose culture and contacts with Europeans shaped the Pacific Northwest. This is a long overdue action that needs to be done now.

    I worked for the Chinook during 2001 and was very dissappointed that the reinstatement was taken by new president.

    If events that happened so long ago against citizens of this country happened today there would be immediate action to right the wrong. The promises made to the Chinook nation need to be enacted now. The wrongs need to be corrected now. Stop listening to the self serving arguments of others that would benefit from the status quo. Do what is right and recognize the Chinook Nation as it should be.
