LEY find it satisfactory and recommend that it be accepted. ______________________________ J. Mitchell Pickerill, Ph.D., Co-Chair ______________________________ Cornell W. Clayton, Ph.D., Co-Chair ______________________________ Edward P. Weber, Ph.D. ii Acknowledgements This dissertation was written over a period of three years and the final product would not have been possible if not for the invaluable support from family, friends, mentors, institutions, and colleagues. My dissertation committee deserves first mention. They truly have molded me into the man I am today. Cornell Clayton, Mitch Pickerill, and Ed Weber have not only made me a better scholar, but they‘ve taught me important things about life. My family deserves recognition for the support and encouragement I have received throughout the years. Mom and Dad, when the going got tough I thought about how proud you both would be after I finished this project – these dreams are your‘s and mine that time can‘t take away. Todd and Allison, thanks for giving me a place to focus my eyes on the catalyst and stand high in the middle of South Minneapolis. Wade Ley deserves special mention for his qualitative research assistance about the Pacific Northwest hop industry in Seattle, Portland, and Spokane during Spring 2010.

As more fully demonstrated below, the Commission should find no reason to believe that respondents have committed any violation of the Federal Election Campaign Act of 197 1, as amended, (the “Act”) or of the Commission’s regulations and close this matter as expeditiously as possible. I. Factual Background In the 2000 elections, the Senate race in the state of Washington produced the closest Senate race in the nation. Maria Cantwell, an executive with the new technology company Real Networks and a former congresswoman fiom the first district of Washington challenged incumbent Senator Slade Gorton. Eschewing special interest money in the form of PAC contributions and making early passage of campaign finance reform a central theme of her campaign, Cantwell largely self-financed her race. When she entered the race in January 2000, the so-called new technology economy was still riding high, as reflected in the stock prices of companies such as Real Networks.

  • 8.7.14 Plaintiff-Respondents' Response to Motions for Leave To
    NO. 84362-7 SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON MATHEW & STEPHANIE MCCLEARY, on their own behalf and on behalf of KELSEY & CARTER MCCLEARY, their two children in Washington’s public schools, et al., Plaintiff/Respondents, PLAINTIFF/RESPONDENTS’ v. RESPONSE TO MOTIONS FOR LEAVE TO FILE STATE OF WASHINGTON, AMICI CURIAE BRIEFS Defendant/Appellant. On August 4, 2014, four groups of applicants filed motions for leave to file amici curiae briefs regarding the upcoming September 3 show cause hearing: (1) Washington State Budget and Policy Center, Centerstone, the ElderCare Alliance, the Equity in Education Coalition, Statewide Poverty Action Network, Solid Ground, Jennifer Papest, Kristin Lindenmuth, Patrick Lenning, and Viral Shaw; (2) Columbia Legal Services, The Children’s Alliance, and The Washington Low Income Housing Alliance; (3) Superintendent of Public Instruction Randy Dorn; and (4) Former Governors Daniel J. Evans, John Spellman, Mike Lowry, Gary Locke, and Christine Gregoire. Plaintiffs file this single, consolidated response to those four motions. As a procedural matter, plaintiffs object that these amicus brief motions do not satisfy the requirements of RAP 10.6.1 1 RAP 10.6(a) permits an amicus brief “only if all parties consent or if the filing of the brief would assist the appellate court.” To that end, the rule requires the applicant’s motion to establish: (1) the applicant’s interest and the person or group the applicant represents; (2) the applicant’s familiarity with the issues involved in the review and with - 1 - 51388129.3 But as a practical matter, since this Court recently granted Mr. Eugster’s amicus brief motion over plaintiffs’ similar objection, plaintiffs recognize this Court will likely grant these four amicus brief motions for the September 3 show cause hearing as well.

  • The Seattle Times Local News
    The Seattle Times Local News Thursday, March 29, 2012 - Page updated at 11:30 p.m. Why Washington state's health reform faltered after loss of mandates By Carol M. Ostrom Seattle Times health reporter As the U.S. Supreme Court tackles the question of whether individuals can be required to buy health insurance — a key provision in the federal health-care overhaul — some in Washington state are battling a strong sense of déjà vu mixed with dread. They remember 1993, when state lawmakers passed a comprehensive state law aimed at insuring everyone and spreading the health-care expenses of the sickest throughout a large pool of policyholders. But the law, which relied on both mandates and incentives, was soon dismembered, leaving only popular provisions, such as prohibiting insurers from denying coverage to sick people or making them wait many months for coverage. Without any leverage to bring healthy people onto insurance rolls, insurers, left with the priciest patients, began a financial death spiral. Ultimately, companies pulled out of the individual market and almost no one in Washington could buy an individual policy for any price. For those involved, the lessons learned remain sharp as a scalpel. "It's the same thing we're very likely to face if the Supreme Court blows a hole in the current law," warns Randy Revelle, a former King County executive who was heavily involved in the state effort nearly two decades ago. Unlike the debate going on in the high court, the lessons here don't involve constitutional questions. They're all about the realities of the health-insurance market and politics.

As Mark Twain once said when he was introduced with efTusive praise: "Sir, you will go to heaven for your generosity-- unless you go elsewhere for your exaggeration." It's been said that graduation is one of the 5 great milestones of life--the others being, of course, birth, marriage, death, and the day you finally pay off your student loans. It's a great honor for me to share this milestone with you and to be here at Bastyr. And it's a privilege to be here for to celebrate the 2 0 '' anniversary of Bastyr. I want to salute Drs. Griffith, Mitchell and Pizzorno as well as Ms. Sheila Quinn for having the persistence and vision to make this great institution a reality. President Pizzorno, members of the Board of Trustees, distinguished faculty, honored guests, parents, friends, and--most of all--the graduating class of 1998--first and foremost I want to say: Congratulations.
