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.
