Nor Rel Muk Wintu Nation Federal Recognition Act
This bill grants the Nor Rel Muk Wintu Nation federal recognition, making it eligible for all federal services and benefits available to recognized tribes. It requires the tribe to submit a membership list within 18 months of enactment, based on their governing document, and defines their service area as Trinity County, California. Crucially, it ensures eligibility for federal programs regardless of whether the tribe has a reservation or where members live. The bill does not alter existing treaty rights or require land-based recognition.
