SJM 8027: Billboards on Indian land

Objecting to the proliferation of billboard signs on Indian trust lands in the state of Washington.

Summary

The U.S. Congress is asked to direct the Bureau of Indian Affairs to reject applications for the purchase of tribal trust lands when the intended use is to erect billboards that violate the FHBA or the State Scenic Vistas Act. It also asks that the FHBA be amended to authorize its enforcement on Indian lands.
