Identifier: CAC_CC_001_4_13_74_0005
The Choctaw-Chickasaw Confederation is asking the Oklahoma delegation to help them secure the right to elect their own chief, without interference from the Indian Bureau. They claim that this is a right that has been lost to the Indian people at some point, and that they should be treated as intelligent people who know what they want.
