What the document says

“Not later than 1 year after the date of enactment of this Act, the Comptroller General of the United States shall submit to the Committee on Indian Affairs of the Senate and the Committee on Natural Resources of the House of Representatives a report”

To require the Bureau of Indian Affairs to process and complete all mortgage packages associated with residential and business mortgages on Indian land by certain deadlines, and for other purposes, Sec. 3

Within a year of enactment, the Comptroller General reports to the same two committees. The report must evaluate the need for each Indian Tribe's mortgage and right-of-way packages to be digitized in order to streamline and expedite completion, and must estimate the time and total cost for Tribes to digitize those records with help from the Bureau.

What the document actually says

“Not later than 1 year after the date of enactment of this Act, the Comptroller General of the United States shall submit to the Committee on Indian Affairs of the Senate and the Committee on Natural Resources of the House of Representatives a report”

To require the Bureau of Indian Affairs to process and complete all mortgage packages associated with residential and business mortgages on Indian land by certain deadlines, and for other purposes, Sec. 3
That sentence, in plain words

Within one year, the GAO must send Congress a study.

What this is about

It asks whether tribal land papers should be put on computers. It also gives a guess at the time and cost.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
