Osage Nation (Amended) Constitution Copies Available for Constituents

The amended Osage Nation Constitution is available for all Osage Nation Constituents.

The amended version reflects changes that the Osage Nation Congress passed to add term limits of five terms for Principal Chief, Assistant Principal Chief and Congress. In addition, modifications were made to improve readability. The red cover replaces the previous purple cover in order to clearly identify which is the most recent.

It is the supreme law for the Osage Nation. All Osage Nation constituents are encouraged to access the Constitution as an act of sovereignty and responsible citizenry.
