Elton Gallegly: “H.R. 3642, the California Indian Land Transfer Act which I introduced…”

On the recordSeptember 10, 1996

H.R. 3642, the California Indian Land Transfer Act which I introduced at the request of the administration in June, would transfer into trust, 1,144.23 acres of excess Federal land to the following Indian tribes: 560 acres to the Pit River Tribe; 40 acres to the Bridgeport Paiute Indian Colony; 240 acres to the Utu Utu Gwaitu Paiute Tribe; 200 acres to the Fort Independence Community of Paiute Indians; 5.03 acres to the Barona Group of Capitan Grande Band of Mission Indians; 40 acres to the Morongo Band of Mission Indians; and 59.2 acres to the Pala Band of Mission Indians. This bill also provides that valid existing rights shall be preserved on the lands to be taken into trust. H.R. 3642 was originally proposed by the administration and is supported by the tribes. Mr. Speaker, I recommend the approval of H.R. 3642.
