As the only Republican in the Oregon congressional delegation, Rep. Cliff Bentz (R-Ore.) is in the unique position at home, but in the majority in Washington, D.C. Bentz represents Oregon's District 2, one of the largest congressional districts in the nation. It essentially covers all of eastern Oregon, and a majority of southern and central Oregon.

Congressman Bentz returned to Eye on Northwest Politics to talk about the bill, why The Dalles is concerned about the future of its water supply, and what Google may have to do with it.
