AKWESASNE — (Ohiarí:ha/June 17, 2026) The Saint Regis Mohawk Tribal Council is notifying the Akwesasne community that the SRMT General Counsel’s Office has been directed to review and research the creation of a tribal member banishment law. As with any new tribal legislation that affects the rights of tribal members, this law will be required to be adopted by Tribal referendum pursuant to the Saint Regis Mohawk Tribe’s Procedures Act (see TCR 2013-32). This process will require community consultation which includes a notice and comment period, as well as public meetings prior to referendum. We look forward to engaging with the community in this important process.
