![["The author is writing to Jack Yocum about their concerns regarding proposed legislation pertaining to the enrollment on the Sac and Fox Indian Rolls. They argue that the rolls were closed by Congress in 1919 and should not be reopened. They believe that Indians are being deprived of their rights by tribal Indian laws enforced by bureaucrats in Washington. The author criticizes the current administration in the Indian Bureau and hopes that with a new U.S. Senator, the Indians may get representation that aligns with the taxpaying voters. They plan to visit Washington to discuss their proposed bill."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/A.%20S.%20Mike%20Monroney%20Collection,%201938-1968/CAC_CC_038_8_32_20_0000-Interior,%20Interior%20and%20Insular%20Affairs,%20Indians,%20G-L,%201963/CAC_CC_038_8_32_20_0006.pdf "Letter to Jack Yocum Regarding the Enrollment on the Sac and Fox Indian Rolls")
