Editorial: Go slow on Navajo tax plan

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 2002

The Navajo Nation should take its time before signing off on a plan to distribute a tribal tax, The Farmington Daily-Times urges in an editorial today.

"The Navajo Nation is at a cross roads," the paper writes.

The paper is responding to a proposal to distribute a 3-percent sales tax. The tribal government would keep 74 percent of revenues and distribute the rest to local governments.
