Staff Only

The letter is a request to Senator Mike Monroney to introduce a Bill in Congress to reinstate 27 Sac and Fox Indian children on the tribe's rolls. The children were previously removed without notice and denied their share of tribal payments. Efforts to get a hearing from the Indian Business Committee have been unsuccessful, and attempts to introduce Bills for the children in different Congressional districts have been met with opposition from the Indian Bureau. The letter emphasizes the need for the children to be reinstated on the rolls and receive their rightful payments.
