Our tribal system of government, the political portion of which can be found in Article 6 of the Constitution of the United States, helped our tribal citizens to reap enormous benefits inherent in tribal self governance.
The 1836 treaty and all treaties are for all the people, not a few. Our tribal government is bound by the United States Constitution to the limited function of protecting our Liberty and Property. Our tribal government is expected to limit their own actions and to further the rights and benefits to our tribal citizens.
To reinvigorate our tribal democracy we must understand the problem. We need to embrace the"first time ever" tribal constitution to help us establish a real government, for the members, by the members, once and for all.
