- Description:
- H.R. 2327 authorizes the Secretary of the Interior to sell tribal land or exchange it for other land within reservation boundaries. The Business Council must request any sales or exchanges, with proceeds used for land consolidation or other tribal purposes. All land acquired for the Tribe must be held in trust, and tribal land can be mortgaged with approval. The Tribe also gains long-term leasing authority. A staff amendment clarifies that only sales are authorized, not other forms of acquisition.
