Lots of people love the expression "the buck stops here." 

Oregon'sstate treasurer is one person who can really say it. 

Whatever the legislature decides to take in and spend, somebody's got to mind the store. 

That's the treasurer's job, and at the moment, it's Ted Wheeler's job. 

Wheeler takes a rare Southern Oregon excursion, in this case to boost Ballot Measure 86, which would set up an investment trust fund for higher and vocational-technical training for Oregon students; he joins us in the studio.
