"Land fractionation is the result of the policies implemented by the Federal Government for American Indians during what we refer to as the Allotment Period."

"I feel that so much of the work that our agencies do is to create barriers rather than to create roadmaps."

"the Land Buy-Back Program spent $1.69 billion to reduce land fractionation on reservation lands."

"I appreciate that information because I think mapping and understanding what is there is absolutely critically important in terms of knowing where we go from here."
