Title

Letter to congressional colleague on starting the bi-partisan, Congressional Housing Caucus

Description

A letter from US Congressman Les AuCoin to a congressional colleague regarding the formation of the new, bi-partisan, Congressional Housing Caucus. Congressman AuCoin states that "The group will transcend political, partisan, and ideological lines to provide a cohesive block of support for pro-housing legislation....The Caucus will push for the development and swift enactment of a multi-faceted housing production program to stimulate housing production and sales. The Housing Caucus -- working with the Homebuilders, Realtors, labor and volunteer advocacy groups -- will play a major role in this." The letter was also signed by Congressman Joseph McDade.

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).
