Title

Letter to congressional colleague in support of H.R. 12157

Description

In a letter to a fellow member of Congress, U.S. Congressman Les AuCoin advocated for H.R. 12157, a bill that amended the Export-Import Act of 1945. Congressman AuCoin argued that the bill would be a step towards normalization with China. The bill, introduced by Representative Stephen L. Neal of North Carolina, was passed in the House but did not come to a vote in the Senate. 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).
