1ST SESSION H. R. 3589 
To amend title 28, United States Code, to provide an additional place of 
holding court for the District of Arizona. 
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 
JULY 28, 2005 
Mr. RENZI introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee 
on the Judiciary 
A BILL 
To amend title 28, United States Code, to provide an 
additional place of holding court for the District of Arizona. 
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representa-
tives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, 
SECTION 1. FINDINGS. 
The Congress finds as follows: 
(1) It is necessary for the United States Dis-
trict Court for the District of Arizona to hold court 
in Flagstaff, Arizona, in order to serve the citizens 
of northern Arizona. 
(2) Since October 2001, there have been nearly 
600 felony cases arising in northern Arizona. Vic-
tims, witnesses, police officers, Federal agents, 
friends, experts, evidence custodians, and support 
personnel have had to travel hundreds of miles to 
Phoenix or Prescott for grand jury, pretrial, change 
of plea, and sentencing hearings. 
(3) Holding court in Flagstaff would serve 12 
Indian reservations in northern Arizona, including 
the Navajo Nation, which is the size of West Vir-
ginia. The murder rate there is 6 times the national 
average. 
(4) Holding court in Flagstaff would be critical 
to the presence of the National Park Service in 
northern Arizona. For example, the Grand Canyon 
is located only 1 to 2 hours from Flagstaff, while 
Phoenix is as much as 6 hours away. 
(5) Changes in the Indian Self-Determination 
Act extended Federal Tort Claims Act coverage to 
tribal organizations, which has led to increased Fed-
eral civil actions arising in northern Arizona. Hold-
ing court in Flagstaff would provide a convenient 
forum for these cases. 
(6) There is infrastructure in place in Flagstaff 
for a Federal courthouse. Construction and other 
start-up costs would be minimal.
(7) General demographics alone dictate a need 
for the citizens of northern Arizona to have equal 
justice. The 5 northern Arizona counties encompass 
a vast area of 340 miles east to west, and 200 miles 
north to south. 
(8) More than 650,000 people live in northern 
Arizona. 
(9) Northern Arizona accounts for 40 percent 
of all crimes committed on Indian tribal land nation-
wide. 
(10) Flagstaff is presently home to 9 Federal 
law enforcement agencies: the Federal Bureau of In-
vestigation, the Drug Enforcement Administration, 
the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Ex-
plosives, the Bureau of Indian Affairs, the U.S. 
Marshals Service, the Forest Service, the Fish and 
Wildlife Service, the Bureau of Land Management, 
and the U.S. Park Service.

DISTRICT OF ARIZONA.
