                                   H.R.   2606
                        Stigler Act Amendments of 2018

   As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs on November 28, 2018


 H.R. 2606 would amend the Act of August 4, 1947 (commonly known as the Stigler Act)
 to revise the qualifications that need to be met by a person who inherits land originally
 allotted to members of the Five Civilized Tribes of Oklahoma-Cherokee, Creek
 (Muscogee), Choctaw, Chickasaw, and Seminole Tribes-for that land to remain in
 restricted status. Land in restricted status can only be conveyed or encumbered by an
 Indian owner with the approval of the Secretary of the Interior according to Indian land
 conveyance provisions and limitations found in the Code of Federal Regulations. The act
 would not apply to individuals that have inherited property in restricted status prior to
 enactment.

 Because the relevant land would remain privately owned whether it is held in restricted
 status or otherwise, CBO estimates that implementing the act would have no federal cost.

 Enacting H.R. 2606 would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-
 go procedures do not apply.

 CBO  estimates that enacting H.R. 2606 would not increase net direct spending or on-
 budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2029.

 H.R. 2606 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
 Unfunded Mandates Reform  Act.

 On August 14, 2018, CBO transmitted a cost estimate for H.R. 2606, the Stigler Act
 Amendments  of 2018, as ordered reported by the House Committee on Natural Resources
 on June 13, 2018. The two versions of H.R. 2606 are similar and CBO's estimates of
 their budgetary effects are the same.

 The CBO  staff contact for this estimate is Robert Reese. The estimate was reviewed by
 H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
