Placed on Senate Legislative Calendar under General Orders. Calendar No. 220.
This bill amends the Miccosukee Reserved Area Act to add a portion of Everglades National Park known as Osceola Camp to the Miccosukee Reserved Area, using a July 2023 map to define the addition.
It requires the Secretary of the Interior, in consultation with the Tribe, to take appropriate actions within two years to protect structures in the newly added area from flooding.
The map copies must be kept on file with the National Park Service, Miami-Dade County, and the Tribe.
Narrow, administrative tribal/park matter with modest fiscal ambiguity; typically has good odds absent unexpected stakeholder objections or funding barriers.

Likely broadly supportive as a measure recognizing tribal space within federal lands and addressing climate-driven flooding risks.
The persona will press for Tribal leadership and ecologically sensitive, nature-based protections that preserve cultural sites.
Generally favorable but cautious.
Supports tribal recognition and flood protection while seeking clarity on costs, environmental review, and coordination with Everglades restoration programs and local authorities.
Mixed outlook: sympathetic to protecting tribal structures and local interests but wary of expanding federal obligations, new spending, and altering national park lands.
Prefers spending limits and strict oversight.
