Title

"The AuCoin Report" 1982 program on economic issues video recording

Description

A video recording of a 1982 televised program called "The AuCoin Report", in which US Congressman Les AuCoin discusses various prominent political issues in Congress. The program primarily centered around economic issues facing Oregon and the nation as a whole in the early 1980s: the housing crisis, the federal budget deficit, the decline of the timber industry, and a high unemployment rate. AuCoin also advocated for the MAX light rail project.
This is a digitized version of an analog videorecording 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).
