We,
the Crow people, are at a crossroads and have an important question
to ask ourselves: Do we want to have a voice in our Tribal government
or do we want to close our eyes and continue to be controlled by an
illegal constitution? Our ancestors are watching and future
generations are depending on us. It is time to bring our government
back to the Crow people.
The 1948 Constitution
places the power in the hands of the Crow people to establish any
kind of government we want, as long as we go through the legal
process and ratify changes to our constitution through a secret
ballot referendum vote. The 2001 “constitution” and by-laws were
pushed through without a secret ballot vote, creating an
unconstitutional (illegal) appointed legislative body, the Crow
Legislature, that isn’t listening to the voices of the Crow People.
Its existence has created an environment for favoritism, secrecy,
lack of accountability, corruption and unchecked power.
One hundred Crow people
signed a petition asking the Tribal Chairman to look into this
constitution issue.
The 2001 ”constitution”
transferred power from the people’s Tribal council and their
elected officials “one voice, one vote” to a handful of
legislators who are easily controlled by outside business interests.
The wealth of the Crow Nation (financial wealth, natural and cultural
resources) has been squandered and harmed by a few. We are at a
crossroads—the Crow Nation is $74 million in debt. The Crow
legislature has cost $600 million to pass 11 laws. We deserve better.
Our children deserve
better.
On Saturday, August 12,
the Crow Tribal council will hold a ratification by secret ballot. We
can restore our voice, the integrity of our Nation and the right of
our Crow people to determine our destiny. We can create a form of
government that works for us by first voting for the 1948
Constitution and then participating fully in creating a form of
government that works for us and the future of our children.
VOTE FOR THE 1948
CONSTITUTION ON SATURDAY, AUGUST 12. RATIFY RESOLUTION 17-01.
You can vote electronically in your district or in Billings at Rocky
Mountain Tribal Leaders Council. Let your voice be heard! Every voice
counts!
