This letter is from Peter MacDonald, chairman of the Navajo Tribal Council, to John N. Happy Camp, a representative in the United States House of Representatives. In the letter, MacDonald urges Happy Camp to vote against a bill that would expel thousands of Navajo people from the land they have lived on for generations. MacDonald argues that the bill is unfair and would waste millions of dollars, and he urges Happy Camp to look for a more humane and sensible solution.
