The Paiute tribes still exist today in the area known as the "Great Basin". Due to the Indian Reorganization Act of 1934, the majority of the tribes are federally recognized.
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.

Chief Joseph, known for his commitment to Native American rights and autonomy, may have had mixed feelings about the Indian Reorganization Act of 1934. While the act aimed to reverse some assimilation policies and restore self-governance to tribes, it also imposed federal oversight and control over tribal affairs. Chief Joseph might have appreciated the recognition of tribal sovereignty but likely would have been wary of the limitations it placed on true self-determination. Ultimately, his vision for Native American independence might not have fully aligned with the act's framework.
The United States did not have an official policy on Native American self-determination until after 1970 when Congress passed the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act of 1975. Efforts to move in this direction began as early as 1933, when John Collier, Commissioner of Indian Affairs under FDR spearheaded the Indian Reorganization Act of 1934.
