Oneida Chair: Tribe's economy goes past reservation


"We believe that when leaders stay focused on public policy and work to improve the quality of life for their citizens, ideas are discovered that move us beyond jurisdictional restraints to a higher common purpose.

This is another example of what can be achieved when we work together to negotiate agreements mutually beneficial to neighboring governments.

The Oneida Nation strives to improve the quality of life for its members.

We make a concentrated effort to create a standard of living in our community that provides a vision for the future and an appreciation for what we have established in developing intergovernmental-service agreements and economic partnerships in Northeastern Wisconsin."
