in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

Since October 11, 2000, Alaska tribes can only get tribal priority allocation funding if at least 25 Alaska Native people who live in the tribe's village were members as of June 1 of the year before. If a tribe doesn't meet that rule, the money instead goes to its Alaska Native regional nonprofit corporation.

(a) — Despite any other law, starting October 11, 2000, money set aside for tribal priority allocations in Alaska can only go to a tribe if, on June 1 of the prior fiscal year, that tribe had at least 25 members who are "Natives" (as defined in section 1602(b) of title 43) and who live in the area known as the tribe's village. (b) — If a tribe doesn't meet that 25-member rule in subsection (a), the money that would have gone to it instead goes to the Alaska Native regional nonprofit corporation for the region where that tribe is located (the regional corporations are listed in section 103(a)(2) of Public Law 104–193). This happens even if some resolution allowed under federal law says otherwise.
