These Senators and Representatives are worried about litigation instead of the truth. They want to re-affirm the SOI's power because he never had the power to begin with for all the decisions he's made since the 1934 IRA.  As a result imposter tribes have been given lands held in trust for Historic Tribes.  What's the solution? Make the SOI's illegal acts legal.</p>
