The U.S. House of Representatives considers H.R.3073, the Shivwits Band of Paiutes Jurisdictional Clarity Act, on March 16, 2026.
H.R.3073 addresses civil jurisdiction issues for the Shivwits Band of Paiutes in Utah. It also authorizes the tribe to lease its lands for up to 99 years without seeking federal approval for each and every transaction.
Following consideration, the House approved H.R.3073 under a suspension of the rules.
