The amendment only applies to elections authorized by the Secretary under the Indian Reorganization Act and does not affect tribal governing documents. The regulations now conform with the 26th amendment to the United States Constitution. Changes were made to allow for absentee ballots without requiring certification by two adults and to eliminate the need for return receipts for notifying off-reservation tribal members. The amendments were published in the Federal Register on April 23 and are immediately effective.

Franklin, Assistant to the Secretary for Indian Affairs, discusses the challenges faced by American Indians and the need for new directions in Indian Affairs. He highlights the various lifestyles adopted by Indians, including those who live off reservations, those who retain tribal customs in off-reservation communities, and those who commute to work from reservations. Franklin emphasizes the need for self-determination and economic development among Indian communities. The Department of the Interior is implementing a new program to transfer administration for Indian affairs to tribal governments, with minimal control retained in Washington. The program aims to empower tribes and increase tribal control over budget, education, contracts, and economic opportunities. The President's message of July 1970 rejects forced termination of treaty and trust obligations, signaling a new era in which Indian destinies will be controlled by Indian decisions.

The American Indian Movement (AIM) is seeking funds to establish a Washington Office which will serve as a communications and education center for AIM's activities and for coordination with other Indian organizations. The American Indian Movement (AIM) was founded in 1968 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. AIM's three primary targets for change are education, churches, and the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA). AIM has expanded to 20 local chapters across the country. Progress on the target areas includes: - AIM fought for and got an Indian Advisory Board to the Minneapolis Public School System. With the Indian drop-out rate approaching 90%, AIM announced its intent to seek federal funding for an all Indian school in the City of Minneapolis. - Because of the churches' history of missionary activity among Indian people, AIM feels that major changes rest within the responsibilities of the churches. AIM's basic concerns were presented to the Lutheran Council U.S.A. at a joint conference of Lutheran Churches and Indian people (LUCHIP).
