Pro-Choice march led by AuCoin family and congressional colleagues
Title
Pro-Choice march led by AuCoin family and congressional colleagues
Description
Representative Les AuCoin leads an abortion rights march with his wife, Sue, and daughter, Stacy, along with other U.S. Representatives. In typed notes about the image, AuCoin writes: "In the late eighties, I fought for Medicaid funding for abortion in cases of rape or incest. In this photo, Sue, Stacy, and I, along with several congressional colleagues, helped lead a pro-choice march. Left to right: Sue, Les, Stacy, Ted Weiss (D-NY), Barbara Boxer (D-CA), George Miller (D-CA), Tom Downey (D-NY), Howard Wolpe (D-MI), Anthony Beilenson (D-CA)." Based on this note, the photo was probably taken between 1985 and 1989. This is one of a collection of digitized objects from the Les AuCoin Papers (MS.147) at the Pacific University Archives. The original photo remains with the AuCoin family.
