#ChoctawNation has confirmed their acquisition of a former Big Lots distribution center in #OK, for which #DHS had been in previous negotiations for usage as a concentration camp.

Despite receiving more than 84% support from the more than 10,100 #ChoctawNation citizens who voted, 5 constitutional amendments fell shy of a separate constitutional voter participation requirement for adoption.
