   Indian Civil Rights Act
The Indian Civil Rights Act of 1968 (ICRA) prohibits Indian tribal governments from enacting or enforcing laws that violate certain individual rights. It is similar to the Bill of Rights in the United States Constitution, which guarantees personal freedoms against actions of the federal government, and the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution, which extends those protections to actions of state governments. Since these Constitutional limitations do not apply to tribal governments, Congress adopted the ICRA to ensure that tribal governments respect basic rights of Indians and non-Indians.
