The Mandan, Hidatsa and Arikara Nation of North Dakota is hosting an update meeting with Elouise Cobell, lead plaintiff in the Indian trust fund lawsuit, tomorrow.

Tribal chairman Tex Hall, who is also president of the National Congress of American Indians, will speak at the event, which takes place at the Four Bears Casino & Lodge in New Town. Cobell and Keith Harper of the Native American Rights Fund wiil provide the update on the Individual Indian Money (IIM) class action.

The meeting is one of several outreach meetings Cobell is holding throughout Indian Country. She met with Navajo account holders in July and plans to visit recently elected Osage Nation Chief Jim Gray and Osage tribal members in Oklahoma later this month.
