We are working to pass the Pit River Land Transfer Act of 2025, which aims to transfer certain federal lands in California into trust for the Pit River Tribe. This legislation recognizes and restores the Tribe's historical connection to the land, ensuring it is preserved and administered in line with their heritage, while explicitly prohibiting any gaming activities on the land.
