HB 4988 formally recognizes the Lipan Apache Tribe of Texas as a state-recognized Native American Indian Tribe. This recognition allows the tribe to access programs, services, and benefits designated for state-recognized tribes at both the state and federal levels. The bill does not grant federal tribal recognition but affirms the tribe’s historical and cultural status within Texas.
