Uh-Oh - maybe Chairman Michael Thomas shouldn't have opened his mouth and asserted in a letter sent to Tribal Membership on Wednesday, August, 19, 2009,” that “Foxwoods is here to support our people, not Wall Street.”
The Tribe Has Spoken
Mashantucket Pequot tribal councilors relieved Chairman Michael Thomas of his duties Monday, charging that he “betrayed our trust” by issuing a letter to tribal members describing his plan to deal with the tribe's dire financial circumstances.
The councilors sent an e-mail to Thomas in which they called for his resignation, closed his office and placed him on administrative leave, according to a tribal official who asked not to be named. The e-mail was sent by six members of the seven-member council. Thomas is the seventh member.
