✆
In plain English
The federal government transfers about 72 acres of land in Washington from the Forest Service to the Interior Department, which then places it in trust for the Quinault Indian Nation as part of the tribe's reservation. Sen. Maria Cantwell (D-WA) introduced the bill, which prohibits gambling operations on the transferred land and requires the Interior Department to disclose any hazardous substances on the property but not clean them up. The Senate Indian Affairs Committee voted to report the bill favorably with an amendment in August 2026.
