The first proposed amendment seeks to strike a proviso that delays Federal services to the Menominee Tribe, while the second and third amendments aim to establish time limitations for appeals and elections. Additionally, there is a proposal to remove a paragraph that grants unlimited Federal funds to the Menominee Tribe, which is seen as premature and should be considered in a general bill applicable to all tribes."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/John%20N.%20Happy%20Camp%20Collection/CAC_CC_009_2_67_8_0000-Committee%20on%20Interior%20and%20Insular%20Affairs%20Menominee%20Tribe%20Bills%20(H.R.%207421,%20H.R.%209078),%20Background,%20Analysis,%20Amendments,%20Summary%20of%20Hearings/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_009_2_67_8_0002_thumbnail.jpg "\"Proposed Amendments to H.R. 7421: Ensuring Immediate Services and Equity for the Menominee Tribe\"")
