H.R. 1311, introduced by our colleague from Nevada, Representative Shelley Berkley, authorizes the Secretary of the Interior to convey 80 acres of land in Las Vegas, Nevada, to the nonprofit Nevada Cancer Institute. The bill also authorizes a limited conveyance to the city of Las Vegas for the development of medical facilities affiliated with the cancer institute. I commend our colleague, Representative Berkley, for her leadership on this matter and her willingness to work with the committee to address a number of issues raised with the legislation. I support passage of H.R. 1311 and urge its adoption by the House.
