![["H.R. 11771 outlines the distribution of funds appropriated to pay a judgement to the Sac and Fox Tribe of Oklahoma and the Sac and Fox Tribe of the Mississippi in Iowa. The funds are to be divided proportionally between the two tribes based on their basic membership rolls. The funds can be used for any purpose approved by the respective tribal governing bodies and the Secretary of the Interior. Any funds distributed to tribe members are not subject to federal or state income tax. Funds for minors or those under a legal disability will be managed by the Secretary of the Interior.

![["The Pit River Indians historically occupied a large area of land in California, which was taken by the Federal Government without compensation. In 1938, funds were appropriated for the purchase of a reservation for the Pit River Indians, leading to the establishment of the XL Ranch Indian Reservation. However, there is a dispute over who should benefit from the reservation, with a small group known as the Pit River Home and Agricultural Cooperative Association monopolizing the land. This group has excluded other Pit River Indians from the reservation, leading to bitterness and resentment among the community. The Bureau of Indian Affairs has shown favoritism towards the Association, further exacerbating the dispute. There are also concerns about the lack of communication and resources provided to the broader Pit River Tribe. Overall, there is a complex and ongoing dispute over the ownership and management of the XL Ranch Indian Reservation."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/John%20N.%20Happy%20Camp%20Collection/CAC_CC_009_2_67_12_0000-Committee%20on%20Interior%20and%20Insular%20Affairs%20Pit%20River%20Indians%20Correspondence,%20Injunction,%20Background,%201969-1970/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_009_2_67_12_0005_thumbnail.jpg "Dispute over XL Ranch Indian Reservation: Historical Injustices and Current Controversies")
