They argue that funds allocated for Indian loans have been significantly reduced in recent years due to administrative costs. They are requesting that the House-passed Interior Department appropriations bill be amended to provide for these administrative needs and to replace the funds that have been diminished. Other members of the Oklahoma delegation are also involved in the effort to address this issue."]](/thumb/CAC_CC_001_4_33_22_0002.jpg "The Removal of Restrictions on Indian Property Rights: A Historical Perspective")
