The amendment addresses concerns about obligating the government beyond annual appropriations by stating that contracts are subject to the availability of appropriations. Similar contracting practices already exist in other government agencies, such as NASA and the Defense Department."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_33_14_0000-Indian%20Self-determination,%201953/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_33_14_0013_thumbnail.jpg "Proposed Amendment for Flexibility in Tribal Organization Contracts")
