Lets the Lytton Rancheria of California expand its tribal lands.
This bill would make it easier for the Lytton Rancheria of California to expand its tribal lands. The federal government could take land into trust for the tribe. This land would then become part of their reservation and be managed under federal law.
Today, there might be unclear rules about whether the Indian Reorganization Act applies to the Lytton Rancheria of California, which could make it harder for the government to acquire land for the tribe. If this bill becomes law, the Lytton Rancheria would clearly be covered by that Act, and the Secretary of the Interior would have clear power to take land into trust for them, making it part of their reservation and managed under standard federal trust land laws.
