A.4. Tribal Representation
Tribal Citizens—defined as enrolled members of federally recognized Tribes—shall be represented in the House of Representatives by one voting Member for every five hundred thousand (500,000) Tribal Citizens, as certified by the federal decennial census. These Representatives shall be selected by an inter-Tribal council, the composition and procedures of which shall be determined by the Tribes themselves. Congress shall have no authority over the internal rules or selection methods of the council, except to confirm compliance with enrollment and population standards set forth in this Charter.
