Bill overview
This bill, the Leech Lake Reservation Restoration Amendments Act of 2025, amends the existing Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe Reservation Restoration Act to allow for the transfer of additional federal land to the Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe from the Chippewa National Forest in Minnesota. Specifically, the Department of Agriculture will work with the tribe to replace sold parcels of land that lacked unanimous consent with comparable acreage, prioritizing land adjacent to tribal holdings and culturally significant areas. The bill also requires public engagement during the land transfer process and reaffirms existing rights for non-tribal members regarding hunting, fishing, and recreation.
