![["The document discusses the Choctaw Termination Act of 1959 and the implications it had on the Choctaw Tribe. The Act was initially presented as a self-rule plan but ended up affecting the rights of individual Choctaw members. Despite assurances from Bureau of Indian Affairs officials, the Act led to the termination of federal supervision over tribal assets and the appointment of the Principal Chief. The Principal Chief of the Choctaw Nation, Harry J. W. Belvin, requests the repeal of the Act to allow the Choctaws to continue participating in government programs and progress along with other tribes."]](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_0006_thumbnail.jpg "Repeal of the Choctaw Termination Act: A Call for Compassion and Repeal")
