I have been conducting extensive research in the records of the Bureau of Indian Affairs (“BIA”) for many years now. During my five years of research, I’ve located important historical records that relate to my personal ancestry and other members of my tribe. Subsequently, I started researching many family lines in different tribes, including Pechanga, Pala, San Pasqual, who have been affected via tribal disenrollment.
During my research, I have uncovered many discrepancies in many agency records. Issues I’ve identified include blood quantum, tribal affiliations, adoptions, etc. The Bureau of Indian Affairs tends to make 2 to 3 copies of their records. Some records are kept in the National Archives and other records are kept in their repository, the American Indian Records Administration located in Kansas.

Wow and they still don't learn the lesson.
That's because they make much more money by being corrupt just like the EC members that pay them.
