Many thanks to Orlando Delogu for such a clear and convincing explanation of the problems with Maine tribes achieving full sovereignty (“Commentary: In state with dispersed tribal land, ‘full sovereignty’ seems unworkable,” May 12).

I wonder why Gov. Mills does not offer this explanation herself? The lack of transparency about her consultations with tribal leaders is a troublesome feature of her tenure. Those of us who support and applaud most of her initiatives would be grateful were she to provide the clarity that this writer supplied.
