Congress passed legislation to transfer 40 acres at Wounded Knee to Native tribes, protecting it as a sacred memorial.
The Wounded Knee Massacre Memorial and Sacred Site Act has passed both the U.S. House and Senate, with unanimous support, and is now awaiting President Trump’s signature.
The legislation designates 40 acres at the Wounded Knee site on the Pine Ridge Reservation as restricted fee land, transferring ownership to the Oglala Sioux and Cheyenne River Sioux tribes.
The act protects the site from taxation and sale without tribal and congressional consent, ensuring its preservation as a sacred memorial honoring the 1890 massacre victims.
The bill, introduced in 2023 and reintroduced in 2025, marks a significant step toward honoring Native American history and healing historical wounds.
