Title: Letter to congressional colleague in support of H.R. 1906
Description: In a letter to a congressional colleague, U.S. Congressman Les AuCoin advocated for his proposed bill, H.R. 1906, the Fisheries Resource Control Act of 1979. Congressman AuCoin explained how his bill aimed to "limit the level of foreign investment in the United States fishing industry and require an annual report on the nature of that investment and its effect on the development of a strong domestic fishing industry." 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).
