Prioritize fossil/mineral development on tribal lands; overhaul BIE; restore tribal env authority
Mandate frames Biden climate policy as breaching trust duties and calls to end the “war on fossil fuels,” restore tribal environmental regulation primacy, secure borders for tribal safety, and overhaul BIE to put “parents first.”
Mandate
Mandate Ch. 16 (Interior) — American Indians and U.S. Trust Responsibility: end war on fossil fuels and minerals on Indian lands; end EV mandates/subsidies; restore tribal governments’ right to enforce environmental regulation on their lands; secure border; overhaul BIE schools; seek reauthorization of Land Buy-Back Program.
Undo plan
1) Support tribal self-determination including clean energy and conservation choices—not only fossil extraction.
2) Uphold federal environmental floor protections while expanding tribal regulatory capacity.
3) Fund BIE academic reporting, safety, and culturally appropriate education.
4) Reauthorize land consolidation with tribal consent and due process.
5) Verify: tribal revenue diversification; BIE assessment publication; buy-back acres restored.
