La Grande residents came together to meet with Oregon's nominee for Governor in 2010, John A. Kitzhaber. The event was very well attended even though the meeting was added to the former Governors' schedule at the last minute. The meet-up took place at Foley Station in downtown La Grande on Wednesday, June 2, 2010.
Former Governor Kitzhaber fielded questions about taxation, local USDA meat certification, health insurance costs. education costs and more.
He was very comfortable with the crowd, offered direct answers to questions, and had a good grip on all the issues addressed.
