Scope and Contents

Multiple letters were written expressing opposition to the recommendation to consolidate the Muskogee and Anadarko area offices in Oklahoma City. The letters emphasize the adverse effects this consolidation would have on the effectiveness of services provided to tribal members, recruitment potential, financial and economic hardships on communities, and communication with tribal leaders. The letters argue that the current locations of the area offices allow for easy accessibility and efficient service to a large population of tribal members. The writers request assistance in ensuring that no action is taken to implement this recommendation.
