Speech before the U.S. House of Representatives on S.1360, an amendment on Section 14(e) of the National Forest Management Act of 1976

Description

In a 1978 speech on the U.S. House floor, Congressman Les AuCoin advocated for S.1360, an amendment on Section 14(e) of the National Forest Management Act of 1976. The measure, which was eventually passed in Congress, changed the way that timber sales on the lands of the National Forest System were practiced, especially in regards to bidding. 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).
