Wyo. governor pledges work with tribes

WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 12, 2001

Acting on suggestions from tribal leaders, Wyoming Gov. Jim Geringer says he would work towards setting up a formal relationship between the executive branch and tribes.

Geringer is still considering the issue, he said. A liaison or a commission could be set up to work with the Eastern Shoshone Tribe and the Northern Arapaho Nation.

The two tribes share the Wind River Reservation.
