Jones mentions that he has not yet had the opportunity to study the treaty, but outlines the two main arguments for and against it. He advises Ziegler to contact his Senators as they will have a primary role in the decision on the treaty."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/James%20R.%20Jones%20Collection/James%20R.%20Jones%20Correspondence%20Series,%201968-1986%20/CAC_CC_109_4_22_17_0000-District%20Office,%20XYZ/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_109_4_22_17_0005_thumbnail.jpg "Letter from Congressman James R.

Bartlett to Dr. Emery Johnson of the Indian Health Service in 1977 addresses concerns from Indian tribes in Oklahoma about the blood quantum requirement for Indian health care services.

The Inter-Tribal Council of the Five Civilized Tribes requested a lower blood quantum requirement for health care services, which the Indian Health Service is studying. The letter also discusses the need for changes in blood quantum requirements to be of general applicability, not just for health services.
