Bill for the Benefit of the Indigent Insane

The Bill for the Benefit of the Indigent Insane (also called the Land-Grant Bill For Indigent Insane Persons, formally "An act making a grant of public lands to the several States for the benefit of indigent insane persons") was proposed legislation of the 33rd United States Congress that would have established psychiatric hospitals providing mental health treatment to impoverished individuals using federal land grants to state governments. The bill offered smaller land grants to support physically disabled Americans.
