Summary of S. 382 - Puyallup Tribe of Indians Land Into Trust Confirmation Act of 2023
The Puyallup Tribe of Indians Land Into Trust Confirmation Act of 2023 (S. 382) authorizes the Secretary of the Interior to take approximately 1.5 acres of land located in Pierce County, Washington, into trust for the benefit of the Puyallup Tribe of Indians. This legislation confirms the federal trust status of the land, which is intended to support the Tribe’s governmental functions and economic development initiatives.
Key Provisions and Authorities: The Act specifically directs the Secretary of the Interior to accept the specified land into trust, thereby exempting it from state and local taxation and enabling the Tribe to exercise its sovereignty over the land. This action is consistent with the federal Indian Reorganization Act, which aims to restore tribal lands lost during the 19th and 20th centuries.
Affected Programs and Agencies: The primary agency involved in the implementation of this Act is the U.S. Department of the Interior, particularly the Bureau of Indian Affairs, which oversees the trust land process. The Act does not allocate new funding but relies on existing appropriations for the Bureau’s operations.
Beneficiaries and Regulatory Impact: The primary beneficiary of this legislation is the Puyallup Tribe of Indians, which will gain enhanced control over its land and resources. This trust status will facilitate economic development opportunities, including potential housing, commercial enterprises, and cultural preservation efforts. Additionally, the Act reinforces the Tribe’s sovereignty and self-determination.
Key Timelines: S. 382 was introduced in the Senate and subsequently passed both chambers of Congress before being signed into law, becoming Public Law No: 118-48. The law’s enactment allows for immediate action by the Secretary of the Interior to process the land trust application, although specific timelines for implementation may vary based on administrative procedures.
