The Citizen Potawatomi
Nation Legislature
The recent approval of the
revised CPN Constitution created a 16-member CPN legislature. Half the
members have been elected at-large from Oklahoma to represent their fellow
Citizen Potawatomis in the state. Each of the other eight members represents
a legislative district outside Oklahoma. Tribal members in each district
elect the representative from their district.
The change in the Citizen Potawatomi Nation’s basic
form of government is designed to accomplish two goals – extend
more input into their government’s decisions to tribal members who
live outside Oklahoma and take a major step toward a three-branch government
with checks and balances.
Additional information is available
in the Legislature and Resources sections.
