This bill is a commemorative resolution that formally recognizes the transfer of 350 acres of land in Wheelock, Vermont, from private owner Molly Davies to the Nulhegan Band of the Coosuk Abenaki Nation.

The bill does not create new laws or change existing policies, but serves as an official record of this land transfer and its cultural significance.
