"Indian Treaty Rights" Speech

Title

"Indian Treaty Rights" Speech

Description

A speech given by Les AuCoin on the U.S. House floor on October 1, 1976, as printed in the Congressional Record.

AuCoin argues for a solution to the treaty rights of Native Americans. Native American hunting and fishing rights were considered to be in conflict with the rights of non-Native Americans. AuCoin presents an article by Neal R. Peirce that provides a brief history of the "Indian-White Conflict," including an example in Montana.

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).
