THURSDAY, APRIL 3, 2003

Money the Navajo Nation has collected through a new 3-cent sales tax has yet to be distributed to the local chapter governments as promised, The Farmington Daily Times reports.

The tax has generated $10 million since its inception in April 2002. Sixty percent is supposed to go directly to the Navajo chapters but the money still sits in trust accounts.
