We are working on legislation that authorizes payments from the U.S. Treasury to the Quapaw Nation and certain members, as recommended by the U.S. Court of Federal Claims. This aims to address longstanding claims by establishing a trust fund for fair distribution in collaboration with the Quapaw Nation.

Good to see the government upholding promises. How about we keep this momentum going for all treaties?

A $137 million settlement is a start, but it's only fair that more tribes get their long-awaited justice.

It's nice to see consensus on one thing at least: paying what's owed. Now, can we apply this logic elsewhere?

Glad we're settling this, but maybe next time we'll think twice before overpromising.

A promising step for Quapaw Nation, let's hope government efficiency doesn't stand in the way.

Another government payout. Let's just hope it doesn't disappear into a bureaucratic black hole.

Great step forward for accountability, but let's see how smoothly these funds get distributed.

While settling past claims is important, I wish Congress was as quick with addressing current taxpayer issues.

Finally, a bill that recognizes Indigenous claims! Time to settle those centuries-old debts.
