He specifically supports Title I, the Indian Self-Determination Act, and Title II, which aims to correct abuses of the Johnson-O'Malley Act and involve Indian parents in education programs. However, he recommends amending the JOM Act to explicitly authorize contracts with Indian tribes and tribal organizations. He also suggests changes to provisions related to training programs and school construction to better serve the needs of Indian children. Text
