Columbia River Treaty modification sought

December 16, 2020

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Three Northwest members of the U.S. House of Representatives have asked the Trump administration to issue a notice of intent to terminate the commercial and power coordination provisions of the Columbia River Treaty.

Dan Newhouse, R-4th District, joined Kurt Schrader, D-Ore., and Greg Walden, R-Ore., in introducing the resolution.

“The United States has been unfairly burdened by the outdated Columbia River Treaty, and it is long past time to stop the wealth transfer from our constituents to Canada,” said the lawmakers. “The existing treaty punishes Northwest electric ratepayers, forcing them to pay for benefits far in excess to the value provided to the United States.

“With good faith negotiations at a standstill, we urge President (Donald) Trump to take a strong stance and issue the notice of intent to terminate the power coordination provisions of the treaty.”

The Columbia River Treaty has not been revised since it was ratified in 1964. Updating it would allow the U.S. and Canada to find solutions for management of the river that could provide new opportunities for cooperation on clean energy solutions, flood control and economic growth in the Pacific Northwest region, said the three.

The United States and Canada began negotiations to modernize the treaty in May 2018.

DCR Campaign Office - Volunteers Needed

Written by Administrator on . Posted in DCRCC News

Supporters, 

I am pleased to announce that the Douglas County Republicans have secured a campaign office to assist with our GOTV (Get Out The Vote) efforts in the 2020 general election.  This will be crucial in our efforts to motivate registered republicans to turn in their ballots and VOTE RED. 
 
We will also have SIGNS available for many of the campaigns.  We are in the process of getting them delivered so please be patient with us while we stock everything.  
 
The most critical piece now is YOU.   We need volunteers to help staff the office.   Currently we are planning on operating the office 3 days a week (Thurs thru Sat).   Each day has 3 shifts starting at 10am and ending at 4pm.   This may be modified but for now, it is a good start.    
 
We are OPEN.   Every Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 10:00am to 4:00pm
 
Training:  For anyone who has never done this before and wants to learn, we will be training new volunteers on the basics.   Good public relations and a positive attitude is most important.  We want to be welcoming and informative.   Email if you have never done this before so we can schedule training.   Should not take more than 15mins.  
 
Location: 616 Valley Mall Pkwy  Suite B (Upstairs), East Wenatchee WA (Building in front of Country Inn) starting Sept 17th.
 
 
 
Please sign-up and help. 
 
Thank you,
Lauren Miehe - Chairman
