Bill > HR7269

This bill, titled the "Helping Our People Act of 2026" or the "kwaxw ad tii iiš dc Act of 2026," amends the Puyallup Tribe of Indians Settlement Act of 1989 to clarify that the Puyallup Tribe of Indians can withdraw funds from the Puyallup Tribe of Indians Settlement Trust Fund. Specifically, it adds a provision allowing amounts in the trust fund to be withdrawn by the Tribe according to the American Indian Trust Fund Management Reform Act of 1994, which governs how tribes manage their trust funds, provided a management plan is approved by the Secretary. The bill also includes a savings provision ensuring that this amendment does not prevent the United States from interacting with the Tribe under any future federal law, on the same basis as other federally recognized Indian Tribes.
