Overview

The Nisqually Tribe’s Constitution and Bylaws were approved on Sept. 9, 1946, and amended in 1994. The Tribe operates as a self-governing entity, using resources from its own economic enterprises, as well as federal program dollars.

As the Constitution establishes, the Nisqually Tribe is governed by a General Council, comprising all enrolled tribal members at least 18 years old. From the General Council, an elected Tribal Council of seven members conducts the day-to-day business operation of the tribe.
