A platform for a stronger Nez Perce future

Welcome to my platform for the Nez Perce Tribal Executive Committee. Here, you'll discover my commitment to our tribe's prosperity, sovereignty, and continued growth. Join me in building a resilient and opportunity-filled future for all.

Our core priorities for growth

My platform is built on two fundamental pillars essential for the continued strength and prosperity of the Nez Perce Nation: driving economic development for self-sufficiency and vigorously protecting our treaty rights and strengthening tribal sovereignty. These areas are crucial for securing a vibrant and independent future for our people.

Addressing community challenges head-on

We face critical challenges, particularly concerning our treaty rights. I plan to actively engage with federal and state agencies, educating them to ensure proper access for our tribal members. Furthermore, I am committed to the revitalization of current tribal properties through strategic investments, fostering a renewed sense of pride and utility within our community.

Envisioning a resilient future

If my platform is put into action, I envision a Nez Perce Tribe that is even more resilient and capable. A tribe that sustains continuous growth, creating abundant opportunities that significantly improve the quality of life for all its members. Together, we can build a future where our traditions thrive alongside modern prosperity.

"Marie Baheza's dedication to our tribe's future is impressive. Her focus on economic development and protecting our rights is exactly what we need."
