Letter from Carl Albert about the Legislation for the Disposition of Sac & Fox Nation Funds

The Speaker expresses support for H.R. 4016, which would provide for the disposition of funds awarded to the Sac and Fox Nation by the Indian Claims Commission. The legislation aims to divide the funds among the different Sac and Fox tribes, and the Speaker hopes it will be approved by the Subcommittee. Additionally, details about a hearing involving the Chief of the Sac and Fox Tribes in Washington are provided, and legislation is introduced for the distribution of funds to the Sac and Fox Tribes of Iowa, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Nebraska. The Speaker emphasizes the need for prompt action on the proposed legislation to resolve the long-standing dispute over the funds.
