Two leaders of the Yakama Nation of Washington were suspended in a dispute over the tribe's gaming commission. General Council Chairman George Selam and General Council Secretary Joanna Meninick allegedly refused to meet with the commission and allegedly refused to bring the commission's annual budget up for discussion at a meeting with tribal members, The Yakima Herald-Republic reported. Both were suspended without pay. The general council is composed of all adult tribal members and typically meets every November. Due to the suspensions, it will meet again next week, the paper said. The tribe is currently undertaking a $90 million expansion of its Yakama Legends Casino. Get the Story:
