WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Congressman Russ Fulcher released the following statement in response to Oregon Governor Kate Brown's Letter on the Lower Snake River Dams:

"Since litigation began on the Federal Columbia River Power System (FCRPS), the State of Oregon has repeatedly sued the federal government. Governor Brown’s recent letter makes it apparent that she has already decided to continue litigation before we see the release of the FCRPS’s new Environmental Impact Statement. As I have previously said, economic indicators and constituent feedback have strongly indicated that dam breaching would not be a viable option for stakeholders in Idaho’s 1st District, it is imperative that alternative solutions receive thorough review."
