Quinault Indian Nation Land Transfer Act
Transfers about 72 acres in Washington to the Quinault Indian Nation as reservation land.
Tradeoff
Moves Forest Service land to the Interior Department for the tribe's use. Prohibits gaming on the transferred land.
What's in it
No measurable federal cost over the 10-year budget window (2025–2035).
This is a land transfer with minimal federal enforcement overhead; the real effect is a one-time conveyance of public land to tribal trust, with a prohibition on certain gaming uses on that land.
