There was almost unanimous action of the Symposium attendees to establish an Alaska Tribal Transportation Coalition; it was determined by the Coalition Organization Group to proceed to establish the Coalition through membership in the Intertribal Transportation Association (ITA).  Any current member of the ITA from AK is automatically included as a voting member in the Coalition.  Tribal and Affiliated members of ITA from AK may vote on all issues brought before the Coalition.  Actions will be made through majority vote.  Minority positions are to be documented and given serious consideration.

February 9, 2012 it is with deep sadness that we learned today of the loss of our dear friend and ATTWG Board Member, Dan Moreno, Jr.  We remember Dan for his enthusiasm and passion for everything he set out to do.  Our prayers go out to his family.
