On the recordOctober 10, 2000
Mr. Speaker, H.R. 4345 amends the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act to clarify the process of allotments to Alaskan Natives who are veterans and makes a number of technical changes to the Alaskan Native Claims Settlement Act. Title I of the bill outlines the qualifying dates and requirements of the Alaskan Native Vietnam veterans and their executors to apply for their native allotments under the Native Allotment Act. Title II of the bill would allow American Indian or Alaska Native and Native Hawaii students to participate in a week-long national symposium on American democracy when the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indians opens in 2002. I urge an aye vote on this important bill for Alaska.
