The plan includes the transfer of stock, negotiations with non-Menominee certificate holders, and the execution of a trust agreement between the Tribe and the United States. The goal is to simplify the transfer process and avoid potential issues such as dissolution or violation of bond agreements. The plan will become effective unless either House of Congress passes a resolution of disapproval within 60 days. Text
