On June 3, the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs held a hearing on 6 bills. The hearing agenda included the Quapaw Tribal Settlement Act of 2025, S. 630, commonly referred to as the Bear Settlement. Written testimony was submitted that is now part of the official hearing record. Oral testimony was only required by the Department of Interior’s Director Brian Mercier, Bureau of Indian Affairs on S. 630. Senator Armstrong of Oklahoma, who has agreed to provide his strong support for our bill, was present that day. During the hearing, he pressed the BIA for next steps with dates, so that our bill could be voted out of Committee and considered by the full Senate. Specific DOI issues included providing a legal shield for the Department of Interior to preclude further litigation against the US Government regarding the Bear settlement, offsets for funding purposes, and the proposed DOI role in allocation of the settlement funds. On 6/11, the Business Committee learned the follow up items have been discussed between Senator Armstron’s office, our lobbyist, and the DOI. At the current time, we are awaiting draft updates to the legislation.
