Wayne Fawbush, D-Hood River, is in Salem for his third session of the Oregon Legislature, facing six months on two of its busiest committees. Fawbush, who represents the 56th District which in cludes Sandy, will chair the House Environment and Energy Committee and will sit on the joint Revenue Committee. The Revenue Committee’s task this session, according to Fawbush, is to counteract the shortfalls of the state budget. “We face the dreary possibility of raising taxes for the first time in many sessions," he said. He questions the approach some legislators have chosen for balancing the budget. “The leadership expects Ways and Means to choose which projects it wants to fund,” Fawbush said. “Then planning for new publications as a means of acquiring revenue for a pioneer museum — the association’s ultimate goal. The association welcomes as members anyone who is interested in local history. Annual dues are 82 and 825 for a lifetime membership. Everyone is asked to bring his or her own table service Coffee will be furnished. the Revenue Committee will have to decide how to fund these projects. “In our own lives,” he continued, “we always look at the money we have available, then decide what we’ll do with it. I think that’s the proper approach for the legislature too.” A major challenge facing the Environment and Energy Committee is to determine how the state will meet its energy demands, ' said Fawbush. Committee mem bers will examine con servation and renewable energy sources as alter natives to traditional energy production methods. Oregon’s statewide land use planning program is up for review. The committee will look at the program's accomplishments after 10 years of implemen tation, said Fawbush, to determine how well it has met its goals. “Essentially, we’ll be looking to see if the planning process has accomplished what it’s supposed to have accomplished," he said. Water will also be a central issue in the 1981 Legislature. “We’ve grown so dependent on water for both agricultural and domestic use that we’d better start examining the extent of our resources before it’s too late, "Fawbush said. The committee will work on the governor’s safe water program. Constituents may contact Fawbush toll-free by calling 1-800-452-7813 and asking for extension 8-8794. His address in Salem is Room H488.
