![["Senator Jackson, Chairman of the Interior & Insular Affairs Committee, provided an update on the status of S. 1017, the Indian Self-Determination and Educational Reform Act. The bill was sent back to the Committee for further consideration due to concerns raised about Part A of Title II. Efforts were made to draft amendments to address these concerns, including one that would allocate funds for special programs for Indian pupils. The amendment also proposed an increase in funding and the establishment of local committees for Indian parents. The Committee was asked to consider different alternatives, including retaining the original language, adopting the proposed amendment, or striking Part A after consulting with tribal leaders."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_33_14_0000-Indian%20Self-determination,%201953/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_33_14_0017_thumbnail.jpg "Update on S. 1017: The Indian Self-Determination and Educational Reform Act")

Administrative procedures for contracting with tribes are outlined, including exceptions to federal contracting laws and regulations. The Act aims to empower Indian tribes to take more control over their own programs and resources."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_33_12_0000-Indian%20Self-determination,%201953/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_33_12_0001_thumbnail.jpg "Title: Indian Self-Determination Act: Empowering Tribal Control in Federal Programs")

![["The Ramah Navajo School Board has not yet recontracted with the Bureau of Indian Affairs for school operation funds, citing concerns about the new policy of vesting authority in Area Offices instead of the Central Office in Washington D.C. The School Board feels powerless in negotiations with the Albuquerque Area Office and believes the Bureau is intentionally keeping Indian communities in a cycle of powerlessness. They argue for self-determination and equitable rights in negotiating contracts for their schools. The Bureau is criticized for inequities in funding and oversight of contract schools compared to their own schools. The School Board is determined to run their own school for the next 100 years and calls for changes to legislation to support Indian control of education."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_33_14_0000-Indian%20Self-determination,%201953/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_33_14_0024_thumbnail.jpg "Empowering Indian Communities: A Call for Self-Determination in Education")
