in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice
No one may set aside U.S. public land as an Indian reservation by executive order or proclamation. Only Congress, by passing a law, can create an Indian reservation from public land.
This is a short, absolute rule. No public land owned by the United States can be turned into an Indian reservation through an Executive Order, a proclamation, or any other action by the President or a federal agency.
The only way to create an Indian reservation out of public land is for Congress to pass a law doing it.
