AI Summary

This bill, the Tribal Labor Sovereignty Act of 2023, seeks to amend the National Labor Relations Act to clarify the rights of Indian tribes and their enterprises located on Indian lands. Specifically, the bill would exclude Indian tribes, their enterprises, and institutions owned and operated by Indian tribes on their Indian lands from the definition of "employer" under the National Labor Relations Act.
