Slog AM: Chinook Nation Rally, a Missing Bike Mystery, and Juicy Neighborhood Gossip

Chinook Indian Nation will host a rally today at the Federal Building. The tribe gained federal recognition in 2001, but then the Bush administration revoked that recognition and declared that the tribe doesn’t exist. Members have spent the last twenty years trying to get the federal government to reverse that reversal, and today they’ll rally at 1st Ave and Madison at 11:30 am, asking Congress to introduce legislation to restore their recognition. It’ll be streamed live on Facebook here.
