Penobscot Nation Chief Kirk Francis will speak to the Knox County Democratic Committee (KCDC) on behalf of the Wakanabi Alliance on their pending legislation before the Maine Legislature. Chief Francis is scheduled to speak at 6:00 PM on Tuesday, April 13, 2021, prior to the Committee’s monthly business meeting. There are two pieces of legislation to update the 1980 Maine Indian Claims Settlement Act. According to the Wakanabi Alliance, there need to be changes to the Settlement Act. Since its implementation in 1980, the tribes in Maine have been left out of 151 federal laws which benefit the other 570 federally recognized tribes across the country.
