The bill amends the act of June 13, 1883, which ceded concurrent jurisdiction of certain lands in Pennsylvania to the United States. The amendment specifically adds provisions for concurrent jurisdiction in juvenile cases, allowing the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to retain authority alongside the federal government over these lands. The jurisdiction ceded to the United States is conditional upon the Commonwealth's ability to execute civil and juvenile processes, as well as certain criminal processes, on the land as if the jurisdiction had not been ceded.

Additionally, the bill clarifies that the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania retains the power to levy and collect taxes on properties within the ceded boundaries. The amendment also corrects the spelling of "pennsylvania" to "Pennsylvania" in the legal text. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
