A member of the Mashantucket Tribal Nation of Connecticut has formed a group aimed at keeping tribal members united.
Steven Daggett, a tribal employee, says "We The People' isn't about business or politics. He wants the group to reduce infighting, start community programs and provide a way for tribal members to share their ideas.
Tribal members descend from 11 ancestors, according to The New London Day, and decisions and elections are often made along family lines.
