Bill 118 s 3564, also known as the GSA Disposal Process Tribal Parity Act of 2024, aims to address disparities in the General Services Administration's (GSA) disposal process for tribal lands. The bill seeks to ensure that tribal governments have equal access to surplus federal property for economic development and other purposes.

This consultation process is intended to ensure that tribal governments have a say in how the property is used and to prevent any unfair advantage to non-tribal entities.

Additionally, the bill mandates that the GSA give preference to tribal governments when disposing of federal property that is located within or adjacent to tribal lands. This preference is designed to promote economic development and self-determination for tribal communities. Overall, the GSA Disposal Process Tribal Parity Act of 2024 aims to level the playing field for tribal governments when it comes to accessing federal property for their own use. By requiring consultation and giving preference to tribal governments, the bill seeks to empower tribal communities and promote economic development on tribal lands.
