"Pushing For New ERA" newsletter article
Description
An article from a 1982 edition of The AuCoin Report newsletter titled "Pushing For New ERA." The article features a photograph of Congressman AuCoin at a Portland rally dedicated to renewing the efforts for the Equal Rights Amendment. According to the article, AuCoin stated: "Some say fairness for women should be achieved, not by a constitutional amendment but rather statute by statute, state by state. Well, speaking as a father, I don't want my daughter to have to shop around, state by state, for her rights!"
This is one of a collection of digitized objects from the Les AuCoin Papers (MS.147) at the Pacific University Archives. AuCoin served in the Oregon House of Representatives (1971-1975) and in the United States House of Representatives from Oregon's 1st District (1975-1993).
