Tribal Co-Management of Federal Lands Raises Issues for Congress
Tribal co-management of federal lands is emerging as a policy question before Congress. The issue concerns giving Native American tribes a formal role in managing public lands historically overseen solely by federal agencies. Lawmakers are weighing legal, jurisdictional and sovereignty questions that such arrangements would raise, and how co-management agreements should be authorized and structured.
Why now: Congress is actively considering legislation or oversight on tribal co-management of public lands, prompting discussion of its legal and political implications.
