ABA Now Recognizes Members of Tribal Bar Associations

The American Bar Association (ABA) recently adopted an ABA Constitutional change so that the ABA now  recognizes members of tribal bar associations as full members of the ABA – at long last putting tribal court bar membership on equal footing with the bars of states, territories and possessions of the United States.  

  • 3.1 Members. Any person of good moral character in good standing at the bar of a state, territory, possession, or tribal court of any federally recognized tribe of the United Statesis eligible to be a member of the Association in accordance with the Bylaws.
