Washington State EARLY ENDORSEMENTS June 3, 2014 The political action committee for Washington state’s largest group of employers and leading generator of jobs today announced its endorsement of 48 legislators seeking re-election to the state Senate and House of Representatives and to one representative running for a senate seat. The Washington SAFE Trust (Save America’s Free Enterprise) of the National Federation of Independent Business, which has 8,250 small business members in the state, based its endorsement on a legislator’s having an 80 percent or better pro-small-business voting record for their most recent term in office. A brief description of the 2013-14 bills or amendments and how each lawmaker voted on them can be found by clicking here. http://www.nfib.com/washington/voting-record/ STATE SENATE Incumbent Four-year Vote Record Sen.

December 11, 2018 Thayne M. McCulloh, D.Phil. President, Gonzaga University 502 East Boone Avenue Spokane, WA 99258 Dear President McCulloh: My colleagues and I formally request Gonzaga University officials reconsider their decision to deny the request made by the university’s College Republicans to bring conservative, political commentator Ben Shapiro to the campus to speak. We are greatly disappointed in the university’s decision. Campuses should be places of rigorous, free debate that respects the marketplace of ideas from all people of race, religion, ethnicity or political views. Higher education institutions should welcome opportunities for students to hear people and ideas they have not yet fully considered. While Gonzaga University is a private institution, students are eligible for state financial aid. State taxpayer dollars should not be used to promote censorship. Your university website states: “Gonzaga’s Jesuit, Catholic, Humanistic education will challenge and inspire you.” Denying Mr. Shapiro the opportunity to speak runs contrary to this statement. Please allow Mr. Shapiro to challenge and perhaps inspire your students. It is also important to remember that Gonzaga University is surrounded by Republican Legislative Districts – including the 4th, 6th, 7th and 9th. It is also located in the middle of the 5th Congressional District, which is represented by a Republican. Many of the residents in these districts, including high school students who might be considering attending Gonzaga University, identify as conservative and want to hear the views of Mr. Shapiro. They also support free speech – regardless of political affiliation or beliefs. Please do not allow Gonzaga University to become an island of isolated political views.
