H.R. 3306 - To amend section 4 of the act of May 31, 1933, 1906-11-07

Identifier: CAC_CC_009_2_67_11_0011
The bill would grant trust title to 50,000 acres of federally owned land to the Pueblo de Taos Indians in New Mexico. The land was taken from the Indians without compensation, and the Indian Claims Commission has ordered that the value of the land be determined in order to make a monetary award. The Pueblo attaches great significance to the ownership of the land and urges the government to return it, rather than give the Pueblo money as compensation.
