Bill Introduced to Replace Indian Bills of Lading Act

Imagine a bill of lading as a receipt for goods being shipped.

The government is updating an old law from 1856 about these receipts.

The new bill keeps all the old rules, but it makes the language easier to understand.

This bill is trying to modernize the old law.

It also gives the government the ability to make sure the bill's rules are followed.

This bill impacts anyone who ships items and needs this receipt for proof.
