All candidates in the 3rd CD race say that jobs are their main concern.  I want to know exactly how each proposes to increase employment of people living in SW Washington, realizing that many Clark County residents work in Oregon.

I listened to your show -last week-on homelessness -and was quite struck by calls from family members of those who are homeless due to alcohol and addiction problems.  I tuned in near the end, so maybe you covered this.  There is a very active recovery community(AA) in Portland and Vancouver - and also a very active program -Al-Anon- for friends and family of alcoholics and addicts.  I wish you would do a show on this topic -unless you already have.
