![["The text is a letter from James E. Curry, an attorney for the National Congress of American Indians, to Congressman Carl Albert, requesting support for legislation to amend or repeal laws prohibiting the sale of liquor to Indians. The text includes excerpts from NCAI minutes discussing the discriminatory nature of these laws and the need for their repeal to uphold equality and civil liberties for Native Americans. Various viewpoints on the issue are presented, with some supporting repeal and others opposing it due to concerns about the negative effects of alcohol consumption.
