Title

Letter to Vera Katz on Low Income Energy Assistance Program funds

Description

Letter from Washington County Community Action Executive Director Jerralynn Ness to Oregon State Representative Vera Katz. Katz would go on to serve as Portland, Oregon's, 49th mayor from 1993 to 2005. Ness writes regarding the reduction of the Low Income Energy Assistance Program's administrative funding from 10% to 7.5%. Ness states that the decision was misguided, if well meaning, and would drastically reduce the program's ability to provide assistance with energy and heating costs to low income Oregonians. Ness requests that Katz assist in solving this dilemma. This is from the records of the Community Action Organization, an anti poverty nonprofit in Washington County, Oregon.
