Research Request: Congressional Records & Federal Documents Related to Docket 80 and the Juaneño Band of Mission Indians Objective: To locate and compile congressional records, committee reports, hearing transcripts, legislative correspondence, and federal administrative documents related to the Indian Claims Commission (ICC) and Docket 80, with a specific focus on the involvement, naming, or recognition of the Juaneño Band of Mission Indians (JBMI) or "Juaneño Band of Mission San Juan Capistrano." Scope of Work: Identify and obtain primary source materials from the Congressional Record, U.S. Serial Set, House and Senate Committee Hearings, and other legislative repositories (including the National Archives and the Library of Congress). Search for: Mentions of Docket 80 or Docket 80-D in relation to California Mission Indians. Specific reference to the Juaneño Band of Mission Indians, or language referring to them as a band, tribe, or group, especially in legal, contractual, or settlement contexts. Federal approvals or internal memos from the Department of the Interior, Bureau of Indian Affairs, or ICC attorneys that discuss the Juaneño as a recognized legal entity. Any congressional floor debate or committee discussions where JBMI's participation, identity, or eligibility for ICC claims is discussed. Oversight hearings or appropriations justifications that reference settlements, distributions, or tribal identification protocols tied to Docket 80. Highlight or annotate any documents that suggest: The Juaneño were treated as a collective tribal entity, rather than a collection of individuals. Federal agencies or Congress referred to JBMI as a recognized or represented band. The Department of the Interior acted on behalf of, or in formal relationship with, the Juaneño Band. Desired Deliverables: PDF copies or scans of original documents Source citations with links or archive references (if available) A summary table or report of findings with key annotations
