This law doesn't stop the Southern Ute Indians from moving off their reservation in southwestern Colorado. They can move to a new reservation instead. A majority of the tribe's adult male members must first agree to the move.

Nothing in this act prevents the Southern Ute Indians from being removed from their current reservation in southwestern Colorado. They can be moved to a new reservation instead. But this can only happen with the consent of a majority of the adult male members of the tribe.
