![["The document is a response to a letter from Charles E. Faber expressing interest in legislation to grant \"reinstatement\" for certain members of the Wyandotte Tribe of Oklahoma. The response states that there is currently no bill pending in Congress for this specific issue, but a bill (S. 2968) has been introduced to restore Federal recognition for certain Indian tribes, including the Wyandotte tribe. The bill is now with the Senate Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs, and the sender, Senator John Glenn, assures that he will follow the progress of the bill. Senator Glenn also expresses concern for the welfare and equitable treatment of Native Americans and appreciates being informed about any other concerns from constituents."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Carl%20Albert%20Collection,%201947-1977/Departmental,%201945-1976%20(CAC_CC_001_4_0000_0000)/CAC_CC_001_4_140_46_0000%20--%20Interior%20-%20Bureau%20of%20Indian%20Affairs%20-%20Ottawa-Peoria-Modoc,%201976/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_001_4_140_46_0002_thumbnail.jpg "Legislation Update for Wyandotte Tribe of Oklahoma")

![["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")
