H.R. 2675 was introduced by my colleague and our friend on the Natural Resources Committee, Representative Dan Boren. The legislation directs the Secretary of Agriculture to convey 140 acres of public land in Oklahoma, administered by the United States Forest Service, to the Indian Nations Council of the Boy Scouts of America. The Boy Scouts will use this land to expand their existing camping. The Boy Scouts will pay a fair market value for the land. Madam Speaker, I want to commend our colleague and friend, Representative Boren, for his work on this bill. I support the passage of H.R. 2675, as amended.
