"World Hunger" speech given on the U.S. House floor

A speech titled "World Hunger" by U.S. Congressman Les AuCoin that was given on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives. In his speech, Congressman AuCoin advocated for the addition of U.S. food policy to address world hunger, including the International Development Cooperation Act (H.R. 3324). He stated his hope for world hunger to be wiped out by 1990 through "the right programs and the right vision." 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).
