Senate Action: The Senate language requires Tribal Priority Allocations (TPA)
funds for Tribes in Alaska with less than 25 members to be provided to an Alaska
Native regional non-profit corporation instead of directly to the Federally
recognized Tribe.
Senate Report Language:
"Language is included in the general provisions of title I of the bill regarding
small tribes in Alaska."
"Sec. 118. Prohibits distribution of Tribal Priority Allocation funds to tribes in
the State of Alaska with memberships of less than 25 individuals, and provides for the
redistribution of funds that would have been provided to such tribes."
Senate Bill Language: "Section 118. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of law,
with respect to amounts made available for tribal priority allocations in Alaska, such
amounts shall only be provided to tribes the membership of which on June 1, 2000 is
composed of at least 25 individuals who are Natives (as such term is defined in section
3(b) of the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act).
(b) Amounts that would have been made available for tribal priority allocations in
Alaska but for the limitation contained in subsection (a) shall be provided to the
respective Alaska Native regional nonprofit corporation (as listed in section 103(a)(2) of
Public Law 104 +193, 110 Stat. 2159) for the respective region in which a tribe subject to
subsection (a) is located, notwithstanding any resolution authorized under federal law to
the contrary."
