More on the casino in Jamul
Ms. Pittman, I absolutely must correct you on all of the statements that you've written above. I cannot take the misinformation and mistruth any longer. It is positively correct that as a Tribal Leader, I, along with my Tribal Council have taken the high road over the last 20+ years, even after all that we have been put through at the hands of a tiny, vocal, volatile group of community members. Granted we are a young Tribal Council, we are tasked to watch out for our people, which we do so with great honor. I was not demeaning anyone or taking any shots at any Tribal elders when I mentioned that I was elected. I was elected in 2015 by the Jamul Tribal membership in a democratic process, similar to the election of the President of the United States. I am extremely proud and honored to be the first woman elected to such a position in my Tribe. My Tribe is who I represent. My Tribal Council and I make decisions based on what is in the best interest of our Tribe, as do all Tribal Councils through-out California and the United States. Our member's welfare and well-being is imperative to us. **Walter Rosales and Karen Toggery were not and never have been enrolled members of the Jamul** **Indian Village**. Please save your disgust for another time, for you speak on an issue which you know nothing about. Erica M. Pinto Chairwoman Jamul Indian Village of California— February 15, 2018 7:38 p.m.
