25 U.S.C. § 281 — Children taking lands in severalty not excluded
submitted 132 years ago by ch. 290 to r/title-25-INDIANS · 46 words · no verdicts yet
Indian children cannot be denied education funding just because their families received individual land allotments. This applies to money set aside for Indian children's education. The rule protects their access under any existing land law.
In the expenditure of money appropriated for any of the purposes of education of Indian children, those children of Indians who have taken or may take lands in severalty under any existing law shall not, by reason thereof, be excluded from the benefits of such appropriation.
