Amend the Act of October 19, 1973, to increase the maximum dollar amount of per capita shares for purposes of eligibility for financial assistance or other benefits under Federal or federally assisted programs, and for other purposes.

Summary

Increases a specific dollar amount referenced in an existing federal Indian statute to $5,000 and fixes three minor textual errors (a punctuation change and a verb tense correction). The changes are technical and do not add or remove categories of who is covered by the statute or otherwise change substantive eligibility or program rules.

• Replaces a previously unclear numeric entry with an explicit amount of $5,000 in an existing Indian-related statute.
• Makes three small textual fixes: one punctuation change and a verb tense correction from "cede" to "ceded."
• Does not add new categories or change who is covered under the statute.
• No new spending or program authorization is created by this change.
• Likely reduces administrative ambiguity and the potential for litigation over the statute's prior wording.
• Implementation entails routine updates to agency materials and references; no complex transition is required.
• Effective date is not specified in the provided text.
