TAHLEQUAH â Cherokee Nation leaders passed a resolution May 27 detailing how the tribe plans to spend $1.8 billion in federal COVID-19 recovery funds. The proposal includes direct payments of $2,000 for all 392,832 tribal citizens.
âThis is such an exciting opportunity for us as Cherokee people to have this amount of money to invest in our people and our future at the same time,â Tribal Councilor Keith Austin said. âThis is a guideline that weâre aiming at, but these are the places we want to make a difference. We have the opportunity to not only get people on their feet, but keep them on their feet.â
