![["The document is a series of letters between Carl Albert, a member of the House of Representatives, and various Native American leaders regarding draft bills related to reviving tribal government under the Oklahoma Welfare Act. The documents discuss the challenges of enacting such a bill and the implications of incorporating under the Oklahoma Welfare Act rather than under State law. The draft bills aim to terminate the special relationship between the tribe and the Federal Government."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Carl%20Albert%20Collection,%201947-1977/Departmental,%201945-1976%20(CAC_CC_001_4_0000_0000)/CAC_CC_001_4_82_36_0000-Interior%20-%20Bureau%20of%20Indian%20Affairs%20-%20Choctaw%20-%20Choctaw%20Termination%20Act%20-%20LegislationMemoranda,%201970/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_001_4_82_36_0001_thumbnail.jpg "Reviving Tribal Government: Draft Bills and Considerations")
