Representative Carl Albert supports the repeal of the Act of August 25, 1959, regarding the Choctaw Tribe's affairs. He highlights the difficulties in carrying out the provisions of the Act and emphasizes the tribe's desire to continue receiving federal services as Indians. The Choctaw Tribe no longer wishes to be terminated, and resolutions from tribal leaders and councils urge the passage of the repeal bill.
