Title

Letter to congressional colleague regarding H.R. 5640, H.R. 5641, and an article on the Portland Energy Conservation Plan

Description

A letter by U.S. Congressman Les AuCoin to a congressional colleague regarding his proposed legislation, H.R. 5640 and H.R. 5641, and Portland's Energy Conservation Plan. Congressman AuCoin explained how H.R. 5640 would aim to encourage cities to formulate energy conservation goals in the manner Portland did with their Energy Conservation Plan. He also explained how H.R. 5641 was "aimed at stimulating the commitment of local private and public funds to alternative energy systems." At the end of his letter, Congressman AuCoin attached an article by Philip Hager for the Los Angeles Times describing Portland's Energy Conservation Plan. 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).
