The Sacred Buffalo Vision by Robert J. Juneau and Robert C. Juneau pg.166-167

Individual poverty-stricken Indians do not have the resources to identify, research, and prosecute the claims on their behalf, nor do Indian tribes have the resources to prosecute their claims. The BIA maintains land records, survey maps, contracts, and original allotment documents which are not available to the Indians due to BIA policy. The Indian claims may represent millions of acres of Indian trust property and billions of dollars in compensation for lost revenues.

In 2007 the Blackfeet Agency Superintendent refused to provide Blackfeet heirs to original Blackfeet Allottees critical information needed to pursue their claims for forced patents. These Blackfeet claimants are listed as eligible for compensation under the 1982 Indian Claims Litigation Act. The Blackfeet Agency Superintendent refused to provide the information claiming he needed specific detailed information not available to the Blackfeet heir because the needed records containing the information requested were under lock and key in his office. He was “stonewalling” the Indian claims and it was a continuation of a century of BIA oppression of the Indian wards under BIA supervision as well as moral failure and conspiracy to cover up the land frauds.
