- Description:
- Mr. ALBERT is protesting a proposed budget cut of $3,856,000 for the education of Indians, which will have a significant impact on states with large Indian populations such as Oklahoma. He argues that education is crucial for the progress of Indian communities and criticizes the committee for singling out states like Oklahoma for budget cuts. The committee believes that states have an obligation to provide education for Indians and suggests that local communities should also contribute to funding.
