Navajo Hopi land settlement tentative path to Congress
The Navajo and Hopi tribes proposed a tentative settlement of 1.8 million acres in Arizona, asking Congress to consider it. The plan, likely not to be approved in current form, would be more generous than previous proposals and aims to start talks with congressional staffs for a workable agreement. The dispute centers on land allocation within the Navajo Reservation, with past orders dividing land and relocating a few thousand residents. The proposal adds 400,000 acres and $76 million in federal aid, after earlier measures allowed purchases and relocations totaling tens of millions.
