- Description:
- The document addressed to Senator DFB raises concerns about the lack of Indian applicants being considered for positions within the Indian Housing Branch at HUD. It mentions specific instances where qualified Indian applicants were overlooked for non-Indian candidates. The document also questions HUD's affirmative action efforts and lack of representation of Indian Americans within the agency. The Senator requests an explanation of the selection process and calls for a review of current applicants to ensure that Indians are given fair opportunities for employment within HUD.
