We are working to transfer ownership of a parcel of National Forest land from the federal government to Gila County, Arizona. This legislation ensures that the land will be dedicated specifically to serving and supporting veterans of the Armed Forces, with provisions in place to revert ownership to the government if these conditions are not met.
