Act /Resolution Proposal Form
The proposal is to rescind and repeal � 205E eliminating the inequitable requirement that copies of personal
al information be provided to transfer a Cherokee Nation Certificate of Title to the State Of Oklahoma jurisdiction. In cooperation with the Oklahoma Tax Commission (OTC) and the Cherokee Nation Tax Commission (CNTC) an agreed upon process/procedure to place a statement on the face of the Title certifying the person named on the title is a citizen of this Nation would eliminate the need for citizens to provide proof of citizenship. Language added to provide certification by the Nation of citizenship shall be placed on the face of a Cherokee Nation Certificate Of Title: It is hereby certified that according to the records of the Cherokee Nation, the person named hereon is a Citizen of this Nation. This proposal benefits our citizens and maintains notable Tribal/State governmental relations in this period of cooperation and expansion.
