Should We Open the Entire Constitution for Changes?

On June 15 of this year, Cherokee Nation voters will have an opportunity to call for a review of our entire Constitution, and potentially change it. The Constitution of the Cherokee Nation, adopted by a convention of citizens in 1999 and fully implemented in 2003, requires elected officials to work together to periodically place a single question before the voters: Should we convene a convention to review and possibly change the Constitution? A “yes” vote on June 15 means you want the entire Constitution reviewed and potentially changed at a convention.
