- Description:
- The Oklahoma State Senate has passed a resolution urging the Congress of the United States to quickly enact legislation to create an Indian Claims Commission to consider, adjust, and settle Indian claims against the government. The resolution highlights the need for a more efficient process for handling Indian claims, as well as the importance of keeping promises made in political platforms. It also references a specific House Bill introduced by a Congressman from Oklahoma that aligns with the resolution's objectives. The resolution was passed by both the Senate and the House of Representatives in Oklahoma.
