Insights: Perspectives Jaime Martin Interviewed on Cascade PBS "Snoqualmie Tribe starts lands protection sales tax at Salish Lodge: The 2% tax will preserve ancestral sites such as Snoqualmie Falls and could be a model for other Indigenous nations"

Cascade PBS

Since time immemorial, Snoqualmie Falls has been a sacred site for the Snoqualmie Indian Tribe. The base of the Tribe’s creation story, each droplet of mist that flies into the air is said to carry prayers up to the ancestors in the heavens above.

“The hope is two-fold: I think that by having the tax itself, hopefully people are going to be asking questions so they can learn about the Tribe,” said Jaime Martin, Snoqualmie, executive director of Governmental Affairs and Special Projects for the Tribe.
