DAVID SKAGGS. TRANSCRIPT of OH 1903 This Radio Program Was Recorded for KGNU's “A Public Affair” Program and Aired In DAVID SKAGGS. TRANSCRIPT of OH 1903 This radio program was recorded for KGNU’s “A Public Affair” program and aired in 2012.The interviewer is Richard Kiefer. The interview was transcribed by Dolly Gavino. ABSTRACT: Former Congressman David Skaggs is a member of a legal team which has filed a lawsuit in federal court to restore representative democracy in Colorado, the argument being that the constitution mandates a “republican form of government,” not a direct democracy. This lawsuit is aimed at undermining TABOR, the Taxpayer Bill of Rights, passed by initiative in 1992, which strips Colorado’s legislative bodies of the power to raise revenue; revenue may only be raised by direct vote of the people. Referring to the study by the DU Center for Colorado’s Economic Future, Congressman Skaggs maintains that by sometime during the next decade, under the current tax structure of the state, revenues would be sufficient to deal only with Medicaid, prisons and a reduced amount of support for K-12 education. He discusses the value in having governmental policy created by legislators with knowledge and skills to evaluate complex governmental issues. NOTE: The interviewer’s questions and comments appear in parentheses. Added material appears in brackets. [A]. 00:00 (David Skaggs is here. He is a lawyer, law professor, former congressman and a strategic advisor to the law firm of McKenna. Long & Aldridge. Congressman Skaggs has served three terms on the Colorado State House [of Representatives] and six terms representing Colorado in the United States House of Representatives. He is a member of a legal team which has filed a complaint or lawsuit in federal court to restore representative democracy in Colorado. I’m pleased to have you on this program this morning. Thank you.) Nice to be with you. Thanks. (I’m going to read just a brief bit from your complaint. This sort of summarizes, I think, what you’re after. The purpose of this case—quoting, “The purpose of this case is to seek a ruling that the TABOR amendment to the Constitution of the State of Colorado is unconstitutional because it deprives the state and its citizens of effective representative democracy, contrary to a Republican form of government.”) (So tell us how TABOR actually deprives us of representative government?) Well, this goes back to really the roots of the United States and the founders’ idea of what kind of government we were going to have when they were working on the Constitution OH 1903, interview with David Skaggs, page 1 of 9 in Philadelphia in 1787. As you may remember the story, at the end of the Constitutional Convention, Ben Franklin was emerging onto the streets of Philadelphia and a local woman asked, “Dr. Franklin, what have you got for us?” And he answered, “A republic, madam, if we can keep it.” So this lawsuit is about keeping the republic. What does that mean? It’s not entirely clear from the founders’ writings. What we believe is contemplated in a republican form of government guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution is a representative democracy, and the legislature—or the City Council or the County Commission—legislative bodies generally—must have the effective powers to meet their responsibilities. This is not a sham where we have a kind of unrealistic exercise in legislative power but one in which we expect our representatives to be able to do their jobs. TABOR, to get to the point of the case— (–which is the Taxpayer Bill of Rights.) Taxpayer Bill of Rights is the—the acronym is now TABOR— (And we’re at the 20th year, I think, right 20 –) Passed by initiative in 1992, correct. TABOR deprives all of our legislative bodies—the State Legislature, County Commission, School Boards, what have you—of the power to raise revenue. The only way we can do that in this state now is by plebiscites—so, votes of the people. And this is not meant to at all disrespect the rights and responsibilities and intelligence of the voters but to recognize the essence of what representative democracy was intended to be about. (Exactly what does TABOR stipulate?) It does a number of things but the big ones are—one, no revenue raised except by vote of the people, and secondly, it proposes spending limits on all levels of government. Some of those limits can be removed by vote of the people; so thusly, the concept of de- Brucing [Douglas Bruce, initiator of the TABOR amendment] which many local jurisdictions have done. Ref C, that was passed statewide a few years ago, was a temporary de-Brucing of one of the ratcheting effects on the spending side, but nothing has been attempted or could be really on the tax-raising side. (So these are just sort of temporary fixes then, I mean this is not—) Those are, and then we have provisions that have been added to the constitution, most particularly Amendment 23 that provides for a continual ratcheting up of funding for public education K-12—not to suggest that that isn’t important but it does put us in a kind of fiscal vise with things pushed up from below and caps above. OH 1903, interview with David Skaggs, page 2 of 9 (So is it our financial predicament which has really caused you fellows to produce this lawsuit, or is it more than that?) Well, it’s hard to precisely dis-aggregate the reasons that a bunch of people decide to bring a lawsuit. I think for many of us, including me, it has to do with the fundamental philosophy of government in this country. I am proud to have been a legislator and believe that legislatures, whether at the state, or city, or federal level, actually are important vehicles for working things out in a big and complicated society where people have to debate and listen to each other and have hearings or work out compromises, and that that is the value, in fact, that Madison and the fellows in 1797 expected legislative bodies to perform. We’ve gotten rid of that with regard to the revenue side of government. Certainly the shortfalls in funding for education—higher education—any number of other things, I think, is also part of the motivation for many of our plaintiffs who are Republicans, Democrats, office holders, citizens, you name it. 05:31 (And the list of plaintiffs, I notice, is quite extensive. I mean, you’ve got like 20 or 25—) We’re up in the 30s actually. (Oh, really? OK.) Most of them, I think, either have been or currently are involved in education at one level or another so if there is a leitmotif to our plaintiff’s resumes, it’s education. I had the privilege of running the Department of Higher Education for Governor Ritter for a while, and that certainly brought me face to face with the fiscal issues facing higher-ed. (It seems like your argument hinges on the definition of republican government.) That is right. (And is that well defined? I mean, what do you mean by the word republican and republican government?) Well, it is not well defined. We think it’s adequately defined. James Madison and Federalist Paper #10 goes through a wonderful exposition and explication of what a republic is, and he contrasts it quite clearly with direct democracy and goes on to spin out what he believes—and, I think, what the founders had in mind—as the virtues of representative institutions. And it has to do with that notion of bringing together a group of citizens chosen by their peers that wish to devote themselves particularly to the business of the public sphere and are prepared to take the time and apply the expertise to do that in behalf of their fellow citizens. (It’s not possible for all of us to be an expert on every subject so with—the idea is we delegate the responsibility of understanding issues to representatives, I suppose.) OH 1903, interview with David Skaggs, page 3 of 9 I believe that is a central concept to this, yes, sir, and it unfortunately, I think, flies in the face of some public misconceptions about government these days, no doubt derived from the lousy job that the Congress is doing much of the time and the sense that, you know, “This doesn’t take any special knack, I could do that just as well as those guys.” In fact to do it right, I think, you do have to have some expertise and devote special time and attention to public issues which tend to be pretty complicated. And again to work things out in a way that can be sustained in a diverse society, you need to bring representatives together to talk it out and figure it out and solve it. (The notion behind TABOR, at least part of it, is that the people are better off making decisions than representatives who are beholden to lobbyists and special interests. That’s a pretty attractive idea. I mean, how do we get rid of the lobbyists and special interests?) It is a question, I think, more of how do you keep them in proper perspective. I will actually hazard to raise a bit of a defense in behalf of lobbyists—people will say, “Well, you are one part of the time,” which is true. But when I wasn’t one, when I was a legislator, even though I spent all my time on these issues and had some staff to help me figure them out, what you certainly don’t want is a legislator making decisions sort of in splendid isolation from the realities, the consequences of what a particular bill or idea would cause.

  • Media All Jessica, All the Time Lacey Rose, 10.06.06, 8:30 AM ET If You're a Jessica Simpson Fan, You May Be Headed to the Theat
    Media All Jessica, All The Time Lacey Rose, 10.06.06, 8:30 AM ET If you're a Jessica Simpson fan, you may be headed to the theaters this weekend to see her in Employee of the Month. But if you can't make it to Lionsgate's new movie, fear not: You can catch Simpson's song stylings on her new album, A Public Affair. Or you can find her at the newsstand--the 26-year-old is currently on the cover of Allure, but she's certain to be on the front of US Weekly, People or Star sometime soon. You can also buy her new line of "Hair U Wear" wigs. Or her "Dessert Beauty" line of edible "bath and body" treats. It's no secret that the old scarcity model of celebrity culture--regular people only got a glimpse of famous people, which made them want to see them that much more--vanished sometime in the CompuServe era. You can get as much access to Simpson and a slew of other instant stars as you want, whenever you want it. But if the customer is always right, Simpson and her ilk may be taking the wrong approach-- apparently you can get too much of a good thing. According to Encino, Calif.-based E-Poll Market Research, which ranks more than 2,800 celebrities on 46 different personality attributes, Simpson’s "overexposed" score went from 17% in September 2003 to 41% in mid-2006. (The average for most celebrities at the peak of their careers is between 3% and 7%.) During that same period, Simpson’s “talented” score dropped from 36% to a disappointing 28%.

  • Papers on Parliament Number 66
    Elections as Rituals: Private, Graeme Orr ∗ Communal and Public Introduction—ritual and aesthetics The area that we will traverse today falls within the law of politics. As a fairly new field, the law of politics hoovers up not just electoral law, but the rules governing parliaments, parties and money in politics. It mixes constitutional law, administrative issues and political science concerns, in equal parts. For the best part of two decades, I have been exploring the law of politics. It has been fun helping found a new sub- discipline. Ten years ago I paused from the labour of wading through statutes and case law, and wrote an essay called ‘The Ritual and Aesthetic in Electoral Law’.1 The essay was an attempt at a sociological understanding of elections as events, events we experience. Ten years later I turned the little tunes in that paper into a book titled Ritual and Rhythm in Electoral Systems.2 Its title prompted one wag to ask whether I was Catholic. (I am not. As we will see, the ‘ritual’ is secular and the ‘rhythm’ has nothing to do with the Billings method and everything to do with the way elections set up the seasons of politics). Today’s talk will distil some of the flavour of that book. Beyond thinking about elections, my overall theme is the importance of thinking about public institutions and practices in terms of how we experience them, and what meanings might be embedded in their forms and patterns. On the way to this forum I was reflecting on the charms of Canberra.

  • “Unexpected Sources of Encouragement”
    FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH 305 EAST MAIN STREET DURHAM , NC 27701 PHONE : (919) 682-5511 “Unexpected Sources of Encouragement ” A sermon by Mark E. Diehl 28th Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year C) October 6, 2013 Mark 12:41-44; Romans 12:1-13 It must be the season of Stewardship—all the scripture texts are about money these days! As Presbyterians, we remain fairly low-key about raising the budget and making a pledge. Financial and theological language is employed to make the approach more dignified, to appeal to the intellect, and by all means to keep it private. Do you know that in some religious communities, the giving of tithes and offerings is a public affair? Peoples’ pledges are published and announced for all to know. When the day comes for the annual campaign, the church service doesn’t end until the budget is met. The hat can get passed several times if not enough is raised! Such approaches would never work here, of course. We are too sophisticated for that. During Jesus’s day, giving was a public affair. As a matter of fact, it was such a spectacle that people gathered at the Temple to watch. Even Jesus was drawn to come and watch, according to our gospel text. Jesus posted himself across the courtyard from the collection box to watch with his disciples. Every family was expected to give, and sometime during the year, a representative from each family throughout the region of Judea would make a trip to the Temple with the family’s offering. 1 The collection boxes were placed in an area near the Temple where the general public was welcome—you didn’t have to be especially religious to contribute.
