By Angela Pratt

My name is Angela Pratt and I am pleased to announce my candidacy for the June 2024 election to Osage Nation Congress.

During my service to our Osage people, I made four promises: to work hard, to listen to you, to communicate with you and give my best to find solutions. I kept my promises. I worked hard to be an involved member of Congress, to obtain the information needed to make informed decisions on your behalf. I was a strong voice for our people, and I am asking for your support so that I may continue.

During my time in Congress, I served on every Standing and Select Committee. I held the position of Chair and Vice-Chair for several committees and had the honor of being elected as Speaker of Congress for four years.

I held outstanding Congressional Session and Committee attendance records as I was only absent from a Congressional Session/Special Session, three days out of eight years. I am dedicated and committed to serving our people. I hold good working relationships with Osage Nation leaders, other tribal Nations as well as local, state, and federal leaders.

I will always work on improving communication as I have seen firsthand how important it is. I do believe the Osage Congressional office needs to improve communication between Congress and the people. I am dedicated to making that happen as I believe the Congress should obtain their own communications support.

I have supported and sponsored legislation for direct benefits to all Osages; Health, Education and Burial Assistance as well as legislation for our language, elders, children, social services, Veterans and will continue to support these needs.

I voted on numerous pieces of legislation that has enabled the growth of our Nation such as: the Osage Nation Ranch and numerous other land purchases, compacting our healthcare so we can expand our healthcare services, multiple gaming expansions so our gaming operations can grow and fund our services, assisted living home for those  in need, elder housing, a funeral home and numerous other initiatives to enhance services to our people.

I sponsored legislation to fund the Osage Nation Veterans Memorial. I am an Army Veteran and there are many ways to better serve our Osage Nation Veterans. I am committed to working with the Osage Nation Veterans Memorial Commission to address many needs to ensure our Veterans understand the benefits they have earned.

If elected, I will continue to focus on additional services for our elders, transportation and health and social services.

I am confident that I have given you my best effort in the past and I pledge to serve you with the same passion if elected. I would like to continue to work with the Executive Branch and be your voice for your issues and address your needs. Thank you for your time and attention. I humbly ask for your Vote in this June 2024 election.

Please do not hesitate to contact me.
