S 621 United States Senate · 119th Congress

A bill to accept the request to revoke the charter of incorporation of the Lower Sioux Indian Community in the State of Minnesota at the request of that Community, and for other purposes.

S 621 revokes the charter of incorporation for the Lower Sioux Indian Community in Minnesota, as requested by the community itself. The bill formally accepts their submission under the Indian Reorganization Act (25 U.S.C. § 5124) to surrender the charter originally issued in 1937. This action directly affects the Lower Sioux Indian Community by ending their federally recognized incorporation status, as specified in the bill's text. The provision is procedural, requiring no new funding or policy changes, solely executing the community's formal request.
