What changed in the latest version
25 added · 28 removedPlain-language change summary
The amendment clarifies that the Seminole Tribe of Florida can lease, sell, convey, warrant, or otherwise transfer interests in real property that is not held in trust by the United States, removing the mention of property held in trust. This change matters because it specifically delineates the types of property transactions the tribe can conduct without needing federal approval, potentially simplifying their ability to manage and utilize their real estate assets.
