This bill, called the Tribal Labor Sovereignty Act of 2025, would change how federal labor law applies on tribal land. It would exclude Indian tribes and tribal-run businesses and institutions on tribal land from the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA). That means NLRA rules about forming unions, collective bargaining, and unfair labor practices would not apply to these tribal employers. The bill’s short title appears in the text as the Tribal Labor Sovereignty Act of 2025.
