On another note:
1. Charles Lawrence Delaney-Megeso, a Mazipskwik (Missisquoi) Abenaki who describes himself as a traditionalist, joined the commission in September 2008.
2. An advocate and activist for indigenous rights for decades, Charles Lawrence Delaney-Megeso was the Missisquoi St. Francis/Sokoki Abenaki Band’s Ambassador to the Vermont and U.S. governments during part of the 1990s.
3. Charles "Megeso" Lawrence Delaney was an indigenous representative to the UN Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues 2002 – 2004, and helped draft the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.
4. Charles Lawrence Delaney-Mesego was involved in the writing and passage of S. 117. But the bill that was written was not the same bill that was enacted.
5. “Just before S.117 was passed, substantive changes were made in the final draft that were not made public and which greatly altered the provisions for the Vermont Commission on Native American Affairs,” Charles L. Delaney-Megeso said.
The legislature’s current bill – S. 222 – seeks to correct the flawed S. 117 in a number of ways.
Mostly importantly, the language recognizing Vermont’s Abenaki “people” as a “minority population” would be changed. The federal Indian Arts and Crafts Act requires individual Native artists to be members of federally recognized or state recognized tribes. Official state recognition can be granted by the legislature or by a state commission that has been given authority to grant recognition.
The proposal (S.222 and or S.569 currently being considered in the VT Legislature) would recognize the Abenaki Nation of Mississquoi St. Francis Sokoki Band composed of the Missisquoi, St. Francis and Sokoki Bands without having to show or provide any genealogical - historical or social evidence that they are from the historical Abenaki of the Missisquoi ; the Koasek Traditional Band of the Koas Abenaki Nation without having to show or provide any genealogical - historical or social eivdence that they are from the historical Abenaki of the Koas; the Nulhegan Band of the Abenaki Nation without having to show or provide any genealogical - historical or social eivdence that they are from the historical Abenaki of the Nulhegan Band of the Abenaki Nation , also known as the Northern Coosuk/Old Philip’s Band; and the ELNU Abenaki Tribe of the Koasek without having to show or provide any genealogical - historical or social evidence that they are from the historical Abenaki so-called ELNU Abenaki Tribe of the Koasek .
Instead of the governor appointing commission members and the chair, the bill proposes seating three members appointed by the Abenaki Nation of Missisquoi, St. Francis Sokoki Band; one member appointed by the Koasek Traditional Band of the Koas Abenaki Nation; one member appointed by the Nulhegan Band of the Abenaki Nation, one member appointed by the ELNU Abenaki Tribe of the Koasek; and one member appointed by the other six commission members from a list of candidates compiled by the state’s Division for Historic Preservation.
The commission would elect its own chairman.
The proposed bill also includes state adoption of the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. Koasek Chief Nancy Millette suggested including the Declaration in the bill, and having served on a subcommittee that worked on the draft Declaration at the UN Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues, Delaney-Megeso strongly supported its inclusion.
