H.R. 2827

To provide for the equitable settlement of certain Indian land disputes regarding land in Illinois, and for other purposes.

Natural Resources Committee · Rep. Tom Cole (R-OK)

20 August 2026 | Reported by committee (Natural Resources, H. Rept. 119-762)

What's next: Floor scheduling (leadership decides if and when it gets a vote)

Summary: The bill would give the U.S. Court of Federal Claims the authority to hear a land dispute brought by the Miami Tribe of Oklahoma related to a historic treaty, requiring the court to decide the case without applying time-limit defenses. It would also extinguish all other land claims the tribe has or might assert in Illinois, though the tribe would have one year to file its claim in federal court.
