Buy Indian Act

25 U.S.C. § 47 : US Code – Section 47: Employment of Indian labor and purchase of products of Indian industry; participation in Mentor-Protege Program

This description of the Buy Indian Act tracks the language of the U.S. Code, except that, sometimes, we use plain English and that we may refer to the “Act” (meaning Buy Indian Act) rather than to the “subchapter” or the “title” of the United States Code.
