Summary

Navajo Nation Trust Land Leasing Act of 2000 - Provides that leases by the Navajo Nation for purposes authorized under existing law, except a lease for the exploration, development, or extraction of any mineral resources, shall not require the Secretary of the Interior's approval, if the term of the lease does not exceed 75 years (including options to renew) and it is executed under tribal regulations that are approved by Secretary. Makes such prohibition inapplicable to individually owned Navajo Indian allotted land located within the Navajo Nation. Gives the Secretary the authority to approve or disapprove such tribal regulations. Denies the Secretary approval authority over individual leases of Navajo trust lands, except for the exploration, development, or extraction of any mineral resources.
