The Sac and Fox Tribe of Oklahoma's Concerns about the House Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs' Recommendations

Elmer Manatowa, Jr., the principal chief of the Sac and Fox Tribe of Oklahoma, writes to congressman John N. (Happy) Camp to express his disappointment with a recent decision by the House Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs. The committee has recommended a formula that would result in a loss of approximately $900,000 for the Oklahoma Sac and Fox Tribe. Manatowa asks Camp to intervene and prevent any further action on the recommendation until after the Oklahoma Sac and Fox Tribe's annual meeting, at which time Manatowa will report back with his recommendations.
