- Description:
- H.R. 7421 seeks to repeal the Termination Act of 1954 and restore Federal recognition to the Menominee tribe, allowing them access to Federal assistance. It also aims to transfer assets and resources to the Secretary of the Interior, with the land held in trust for the tribe. This would potentially restore economic and social viability to the tribe and allow for the recreation of tribal government and local control of affairs, reversing the trend of decline they are currently facing.
