S. 239

Crow Revenue Act

Indian Affairs Committee · Sen. Steve Daines (R-MT)

28 September 2026  |  Reported by committee (Indian Affairs, with an amendment in the nature of a substitute, S. Rept. 119-155)

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

Summary: The bill would facilitate a three-way exchange of mineral and land interests in Montana: the federal government would relinquish a coal lease at the Bull Mountains Mine, the Hope Family Trust would transfer thousands of acres of mineral rights within the Crow Indian Reservation to the Crow Tribe, and the federal government would give the Hope Family Trust mineral and surface interests in Musselshell County. The mineral interests conveyed to the tribe would be held in federal trust and exempt from state and local taxes, contingent on the tribe and the Hope Family Trust agreeing to a revenue-sharing arrangement for developing the Musselshell County interests.
