- The document addresses concerns about the misuse of Creek Indian judgment funds by Mr. Cox and the lack of transparency in the Creek Tribal Governing Body. The document requests an investigation into the funds before two bills are passed and asks for a hearing or reconsideration of the funds' disposition. Further, the letter expresses reservations about a pending bill that could withhold a portion of judgment funds for programming. The document is signed by three Creek Indians and copies are sent to Senator Bartlett and Senator Bellmon.
