Testimony before the Subcommittee on Energy and Power regarding Local Energy Conservation Programs
Description
A speech by U.S. Congressman Les AuCoin before the House Subcommittee on Energy and Power of the Interstate and Foreign Commerce Committee regarding local energy conservation programs. In his speech, Congressman AuCoin advocated for proposed local energy conservation programs, including his related bill, H.R. 5640, "A bill to amend the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 to provide for grants to be made by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development to local governmental units and Indian tribes for the development of energy conservation plans and programs." He described the similar energy conservation program that the city of Portland, Oregon had enacted. Congressman AuCoin also advocated for H.R. 5641, which was similar to H.R. 5640. 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).
