Analysis of Proposed BIA Regulation Expanding Preference for Descendants of Five Civilized and Osage Tribes in Oklahoma, 1976-03-10
Item — Box: 140, Folder: 39
Identifier: CAC_CC_001_4_140_39_0010
The text is a letter discussing a proposed Bureau of Indian Affairs regulation that would expand preference to descendants of members of certain tribes in Oklahoma. The letter argues that this proposal is misconceived and lacks statutory authority. It also disputes the Secretary's interpretation of the Indian Reorganization Act and argues that the proposed regulation cannot be based on this interpretation. The letter raises concerns about the lack of eligibility for descendants of certain Oklahoma tribes and questions the Secretary's position on tribal organization under the Act.
