The first bill aims to extend restrictions on members of the Five Civilized Tribes, the second bill will reopen the right to file claims before the Indian Claims Commission, and the third bill is focused on promoting the rehabilitation of members of the Five Civilized Tribes and other Indians in eastern Oklahoma. Albert emphasized the urgency of passing the first bill before the restrictions expire in April 1956 to prevent confusion and hardships for Oklahoma Indians. He also expressed his commitment to completing the work of the Indian Claims Commission and promoting the rehabilitation of the tribes."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Carl%20Albert%20Collection,%201947-1977/Speeches%20and%20Press%20Releases,%201927-1976%20-%20CAC_CC_001_16_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_001_16_11_140_0000-Press%20Releases-Indian%20Affairs,%201969/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_001_16_11_140_0005_thumbnail.jpg "Native American Contract Award for Water Well Renovation")
