The text is a letter from Anita Romanowski of the Native American Rights Fund to Leo Jardot proposing technical amendments to Section 3 (j) of the Food and Agriculture Act of 1977 to ensure the eligibility of Oklahoma Indians for participation in the USDA's Food Distribution Program. The proposed amendments address the unique historical status and jurisdictional issues faced by Oklahoma tribes, and suggest alternative language to clarify eligibility requirements. The letter also includes proposed report language to explain the intent of the amendments.
