Page Belcher, a member of Congress, congratulating him on his re-election and expressing her concerns regarding an Indian matter involving the Kiowa, Comanche, and Apache Tribes. She requested that the vote on a constitution be postponed until after a regular tribal election and an investigation by the Association on American Indian Affairs is completed.
