Passed House

Summary

Modernizes statutory cross‑references to the Indian Self‑Determination and Education Assistance Act (ISDEAA). It systematically replaces outdated citations with current ISDEAA provisions and standardizes language so federal statutes consistently point to the same tribal self‑determination authorities.

Show full summary
  • Tribal governments and tribal programs get clearer legal footing because many statutes are relinked to current ISDEAA sections, including 63 specific substitutions in Title 25.
  • Federal agencies and program managers see updated citations across 25+ titles, covering areas like education, health, housing, natural resources, and transportation, which reduces scattered or obsolete references.
  • Courts, lawyers, and program administrators gain more uniform language for interpreting tribal authorities and program rules, while existing program funding, eligibility, and enforcement remain unchanged.

*The bill does not change federal spending, revenues, funding formulas, or eligibility and therefore does not affect the federal budget.*
