An AuCoin Report letter titled "Update: Nuclear Power," published by the office of US Congressman Les AuCoin on August 1, 1982. In the letter, Congressman AuCoin criticized the Clinch River Breeder Reactor nuclear project and its $252 million budget proposed by the Ronald Reagan Administration. He also attached an excerpt from the Congressional Record containing his statement that he gave regarding the Clinch River Breeder Reactor nuclear project on July 29, 1982.
A copy of a congressional record statement titled "Swan Song for Clinch River," in reference to costly failure of the nuclear Clinch River Breeder Reactor Project in Tennessee, delivered by US Congressman Les AuCoin. A copy of the statement was sent to Congresman AuCoin, who seemingly wrote notes in the margins additionally criticizing the project, stating "It's too bad for America, too, that Mr. Howard Baker's pet project wasn't solar or renewable energy; why is it that political back-scratching never seems to benefit the causes that will do the nation the most good?" A draft letter by AuCoin to the Reagan Administration is attached to the end of the statement copy, calling the Clinch River Breeder Reactor Project "expensive, dangerous, and unnecessary."
