Title: Testimony regarding House Concurrent Resolution 92 before the Subcommittee on International Organizations
Description: Testimony of U.S. Congressman Les AuCoin regarding House Concurrent Resolution 92 before the Subcommittee on International Organizations House Committee on Foreign Affairs. Before the subcommittee, Congressman AuCoin advocated for the resolution, which he sponsored, arguing for negotiations for "an indefinite moratorium on commercial whale killing at the July meeting of the International Whaling Commission." House Current Resolution 92 of the 96th Congress never came to a vote, but the International Whaling Commission did vote to execute a pause on commercial whaling in 1982. 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).
