The document discusses the proposed establishment of a Congressional Commission for major reform of Federal-Indian relations, similar to the Public Land Law Review Commission. The Commission would allow for bipartisan representation, financial resources, and high-quality staff to address issues such as historical-legal developments, the Federal trustee's role, natural resource management, tribal government adequacy, and Indian self-determination. The document also outlines the structure and functions of the Public Land Law Review Commission as a model for the proposed Indian Commission.
