in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

Only Congress can change the boundaries of Indian reservations that were created by Executive order or proclamation. No one else may redraw these boundary lines.

Some Indian reservations were created by Executive order, presidential proclamation, or some other method — not by an act of Congress. This section says that once such a reservation is set up, its boundaries cannot be changed except by an Act of Congress. No department or official may redraw the lines on their own.

Changes in the boundaries of reservations created by Executive order, proclamation, or otherwise for the use and occupation of Indians shall not be made except by Act of Congress.
