Title

"Brain Drain: Teachers and California" radio episode

Description

An audio recording by Oregon Congressman Les AuCoin regarding the Oregon state budget cuts resulting in inadequate support for teachers. In comparison, AuCoin explains how California's employee benefits for teachers, including paid moving expenses, sign-on bonuses, and greater annual salaries, were tempting Oregon’s best teachers to move out-of-state. This is one episode from AuCoin's biweekly radio show on Jefferson Public Radio (JPR), which ran after he had retired from office. The majority of episodes feature his commentary on current political events, often focusing on issues important to southern Oregon where JPR is based. This episode likely aired in February 2003.
