Introduced 2026-01-14Summary
AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would end the criminal jurisdiction that a 1948 federal law gave the State of New York over the reservations of the Seneca Nation of Indians. The change would take effect only if both the U.S. Attorney General and the Seneca Nation agree in writing. The bill does not change the law for other Indian reservations in New York.
