Summer vote on tribal constitution proposed
The MHA Nation, also known as the Three Affiliated Tribes, have been governed by a constitution that is nearly 90 years old. Chairman Mark Fox is planning a referendum to update and revise the constitution, perhaps as early as this summer.
The referendum will go out to all MHA Nation members, on and off the reservation by mail, in June.
Fox said there will be a vote on medical marijuana on reservations and for term limits, two issues that he supports. Also on the ballot will be new enrollment requirements, tribal government reform measures, and off-reservation voting.
