Oregon Governor Kulongoski has put forth former Congressman Les AuCoin as a potential nominee for the appointment to the Oregon State Board of Forestry. The Oregon Senate must confirm the nomination. The appointment of Les AuCoin will be detrimental as he openly supported measure 34. (The same mesure 34 that would have denied us use of our State forest if passed. As most know it was shot down by the entire State of Oregon!) Please do NOT support the appointment of AuCoin to the board.
WHAT CAN YOU DO?!
Easy and in 5 min. No form letters or anything, just take a minute to send your State Senator an e-mail or call and ask him or her to NOT support the appointment of Les AuCoin as a potential nominee for the Oregon State Board of Forestry.

Use your own words, but this is what I wrote:
Senator Gary George,
Please do not support Governor Kulongoski nominee, Les AuCoin as a potential nominee for the appointment to the Oregon State Board of Forestry. Mr. AuCoin was vocal in his support of the recently defeated attempt to bypass the planning structure of the Tillamook State Forest with measure 34. I firmly believe measure 34 would have greatly crippled Oregon's economy and would have yielded terrible results to the environment.
Thank you for NOT supporting Les AuCoin as a nominee for an appointment to the Oregon State Board of Forestry.
