American Indian Policy Commission

The American Indian Policy Commission was established to review and recommend policies affecting Native American tribes and communities. Its goal was to address historical injustices, improve relationships, and promote self-governance, economic development, and cultural preservation. The commission gathered input from tribes, leaders, and experts to suggest ways the federal government could better serve Native nations. Overall, it aimed to develop fair, respectful policies that support Native peoples' rights, sovereignty, and well-being within the broader American society.
