Indian Reorganization Act of 1934.
The Indian Reorganization Act, also known as the Wheeler-Howard Act, was primarily authored by John Collier, who was the Commissioner of Indian Affairs at the time. Introduced in 1934, the act aimed to reverse the assimilation policies of the Dawes Act and promote self-governance and economic self-sufficiency among Native American tribes. It sought to restore some degree of tribal sovereignty and allowed tribes to establish their own governments.

(I am doing National History Day on this topic) The Indian Reorganization Act of 1934 (also called the W'heeler-Howard Act) was solely to give rights and other things they deserved to the American Indians. The act also was an attempt to undo the damage done by the Dawes Act. It gave them a credit system , a chance at good education, it prohibited further sale of allotments, etc.
The Indians suffered the loss of civil rights and were placed on reservations. The adaptation to change was very hard for the Native Americans.
