Colville Business Council Expels Councilwoman Williams-Louis

Jan 18, 2018

By a 10-3 vote, the Colville Business Council (CBC) today approved the expulsion of CBC member Melissa Louis-Williams. The expulsion is effective immediately, according to a news release from the Council.

The release said the decision was based upon the CBC’s determination that Louis-William committed gross misconduct while a council member, in violation of the Colville Tribes’ Constitution and Chapter 1-8 of the Colville Tribal Code.

The CBC will discuss filling the vacancy in the Omak District at a later date.
