Title

"Oregon House Republicans' Political Theater" radio episode

Description

An audio recording by Oregon Congressman Les AuCoin commenting on the manner in which Oregon House Republicans addressed the issue of tax reform in a then recent session. Republican House Speaker Karen Minnis tried to suggest a partisan alternative to the issue of tax reform by enacting a "hastily crafted spending cap," ignoring the fact that the state of Oregon already had spending limits in place. 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 2002-2003.
