The United States has settled a 13-year-old class action lawsuit alleging the government mismanaged assets held in trust for American Indians.
Attorney General Eric Holder and Interior Secretary Ken Salazar are holding a news conference at the Interior Department headquarters in Washington this morning to announce the settlement.
According to this settlement agreement, the government will pay $1.4 billion to settle the claims. We’ll have an update later.
