Belvin, is thanking the Speaker of the House, Carl Albert, for considering an add-on appropriation for the construction of Indian health clinics. He clarifies that the appropriation should be added to the HEW budget, not the Interior Department budget. He also mentions ongoing efforts to assist the Pocahontas Arts and Crafts Center. Additionally, there is a proposal for the construction of three buildings by the Choctaw Nation Enterprises, Inc., which aims to develop Southeastern Oklahoma. The Speaker acknowledges the proposal and promises to study it further.
