“We want to have true and meaningful consultation,” said Shaun Chapoose, chairman of the Ute Tribe. Many of the 30 federally-recognized Indian tribes in the Colorado River basin have asked for greater inclusion as the region negotiates how water will be allocated in the face of a shrinking supply.

News reporter Hattison Rensberry brings listeners Friday’s news including: refunds to Colorado customers of two debt-relief companies, a recap of the recent meeting to address the Thompson Divide land withdraw, how farmers are advocating to change immigration laws, the "ick" factor on lidless, public toilets, a collection of hair that will be returned to tribes from Harvard's Peabody Museum, and an uptick in recent developments of missing and murdered indigenous people in Arizona.
