Lumbee Tribe State of the Tribe Highlights 2023

During the Lumbee Tribe’s State of the Tribe Address Chairman John L Lowery discussed the expanded tribal budget, but he also looked at legislation that is important to the Lumbee Tribe and also key partnerships which are making a difference for the Lumbee people. These are just a few of highlights that were shared with a Lumbee Citizen’s on Thursday night. Thank you to everyone who attended the Lumbee Tribe of N.C. State of the Tribe Address. Chairman Lowery also honored former First Lady Diane Goins with an Eagle feather for her contributions to the Lumbee People and her community. Mrs. Diane is the widow of former Tribal Chairman Jimmy Goins. She wears many hats, but is probably best remembered for her role as an elementary school teacher.
