![["The General Accounting Office (GAO) found that the Indian Health Service violated federal regulations by performing sterilizations on Native American women without their informed consent. The GAO report highlighted instances of sterilizations performed for non-medical reasons and without proper counseling. The Indian Health Service did not provide a breakdown of the reasons for sterilizations and did not adequately inform women of their right to change their minds about the procedure. The GAO's findings were criticized by medical experts and raised concerns about the treatment of Native American women by the health service."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_36_9_0000-Indian%20Sterilization%20-%20subject%20-%20Bartlett/thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_36_9_0002_thumbnail.jpg "Violations of Federal Regulations in Sterilization Procedures: An Investigation into the Indian Health Service")

![["The memorandum discusses the distribution of judgment funds awarded to the Delaware Tribes in Oklahoma, specifically the exclusion of the Kansas Delawares from the distribution. The issue arose due to a lawsuit filed by the Kansas Delawares, leading to a Supreme Court decision that they were not entitled to share in the funds. Both the Oklahoma Delawares and the Kansas Delawares are seeking support from the Oklahoma Congressional Delegation for differing outcomes. The BIA had prepared to distribute the funds, but now must wait for the Supreme Court's decision on the Kansas Delawares' request for a rehearing. The exclusion of the Kansas Delawares was a result of strict eligibility criteria established by the Oklahoma Delawares to prevent delays in fund distribution.
