I'm really sad to see that this bill is still stuck in Congress. It's been months since it was introduced, and it's frustrating to see such an important piece of legislation being held up. The Pascua Yaqui Tribe deserves to have their land conveyed to them, and it's disappointing that this process is taking so long. Hopefully, this bill will be passed soon so that the tribe can finally have the land that is rightfully theirs. #PascuaYaquiTribeLandConveyanceAct #UnitedStatesPolitics
