The Sac and Fox Tribe of Indians of Oklahoma supports H.R. 4016 for the allocation of awards among the three Sac and Fox bands. They believe the awards should be divided based on current tribal membership, while the other two bands and the Department of Interior suggest using population statistics from an earlier date. Despite not being in total agreement, the Oklahoma Sac and Fox are willing to compromise for the sake of resolving the long-standing controversy over the division of claims awards. They believe H.R. 4016 presents a reasonable compromise and support its passage.
