Summary
This bill modernizes and aligns federal law by replacing outdated citations with current codified references to the _Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act (ISDEAA)_. It standardizes how the ISDEAA is cited across wide parts of the U.S. Code so the same statutory provisions are referenced everywhere.
Show full summary
- Tribal governments and tribal program managers get clearer, consistent statutory links to their self‑determination authorities, while program rules, eligibility, and funding remain unchanged.
- Federal agencies and program administrators see harmonized citations across health, education, housing, workforce, public safety, and resource statutes, which should reduce mis‑citations and administrative confusion when applying ISDEAA provisions.
- Courts, lawyers, and grant or contract specialists benefit from clearer statutory language and subsection references, which helps with legal interpretation and drafting across many programs.
*This bill does not create new program authority or new federal funding and does not change eligibility, timelines, or enforcement.*
