Title
"Bipartisan" radio episode
Description
An audio recording by Oregon Congressman Les AuCoin describing how 11 Republicans in the Oregon House of Representatives put the state of Oregon first above partisan goals. He states that Republican Rob Patridge of Medford stepped up and voted to preserve public services and balance the budget, going against traditional party lines. AuCoin shares his admiration for the Republican 11, who "defied their party's dogma" and stepped up as leaders in order to compromise and address the issue of the Oregon budget deficit. This is one episode from AuCoin's biweekly radio show on Jefferson Public Radio (JPR), which ran after he had retired from office. The majority of episodes feature his commentary on current political events, often focusing on issues important to southern Oregon where JPR is based. This episode aired in 2003.
