- Description:
- The Sac and Fox Tribe of Oklahoma is requesting a reconsideration of a decision made by the Bureau of Indian Affairs regarding the enrollment of members. They provide evidence, including letters and official documents, to support their claim that the individual in question has both Sac and Fox and Shawnee blood, and should be included in the tribe's membership roll. The tribe argues that the recent decision deprives the individual of her Shawnee heritage and culture.
