Thomas Wasson isn't the Tribal Chairman of Winnemucca Indian Colony. We as members haven't seen a letter stating his is impowered. Thomas Wasson saying Western Band of western Shoshone. He'd be Te-Moke which they reject him and his family. The Wasson's took the 1900"s butout and ended in california and used BIA monies for relocation,Monies, Housing Ect. They say they don't use BIA money but Thomas Wasson's uses BIA money for school from Sacramento BIA then Quits when he gets the money. He is putting the Members that are from Winnemucca and born and raised in a bad position with the US Government. The Wasson's used the Tribes money to buy a car, bounces Tribal checks, and can't even clenup the Colony and Drugs there. Take of home first if you were a leader.The Pass Chairman Glenn Wasson even had the Tribes money in his own bank account with his SSN#. Doc's show all that they have done and still FBI & BIA hasn't done anything. Please don't support them right now. They have made the members of the Tribes suffer enough. E.F.Howard Historian
