H.R. 10352 is a bill introduced in the House of Representatives in 1971 to provide for the disposition of judgment funds for the Pueblo of Laguna in Indian Claims Commission docket numbered 227. The bill allows for the unexpended funds, with interest, to be used for any purpose approved by the tribal governing body and the Secretary of the Interior, with distributed funds exempt from federal and state income taxes. The Department recommends a technical amendment to ensure the funds remain tax-exempt when distributed.
