The text is a response to a letter from Charles E. Faber expressing interest in legislation to grant "reinstatement" for certain members of the Wyandotte Tribe of Oklahoma. The response states that there is currently no bill pending in Congress for this specific issue, but a bill (S. 2968) has been introduced to restore Federal recognition for certain Indian tribes, including the Wyandotte tribe. The bill is now with the Senate Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs, and the sender, Senator John Glenn, assures that he will follow the progress of the bill. Senator Glenn also expresses concern for the welfare and equitable treatment of Native Americans and appreciates being informed about any other concerns from constituents.
