Tribal Sovereignty and Native Civil Rights Enforcement Act
Summary
This bill expands federal enforcement against discrimination affecting federally recognized Tribes and Native Americans in public services, permitting, and land-use decisions, while requiring stronger government-to-government consultation before major federal actions. It also creates civil remedies and penalties for repeat violators and explicitly preserves Tribal treaty rights, sovereignty, and federal trust responsibilities.
