  • December 11, 2018 Thayne M. Mcculloh, D.Phil. President, Gonzaga University 502 East Boone Avenue Spokane, WA 99258 Dear P
    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.

  • 2020 State Legislative Elections Update and 2021 Session Context
    2020 State Legislative Elections Update and 2021 Session Context November 12, 2020 By Emily Murphy Strategies Budget Update: While the revenue forecast has improved since the most dire projections this Spring – shrinking the projected revenue shortfall from approximately $9 billion to now $2.7 billion for the 2021- 2023 biennium – by no means are we out of the woods. Due to the pandemic, state revenue collections are expected to fall nearly $4 billion short of the amount needed to sustain existing commitments to schools, health care, child care, and other essential investments for the next three years1. Revenue experts are also quick to note they are not epidemiologists, and there is no precedent in the modern era to account for a global pandemic on the economic forecasts, especially as we experience spikes in new COVID cases in the winter months, and some nations enter more restrictive lockdowns. The Office of Financial Management projects an estimated $2.4 billion in the Budget Stabilization Account (“Rainy Day Fund”) over the next 3 years. In June, the Office of Financial Management directed state agencies to propose 15% cuts as part of their budget reduction exercise, which amounted to nearly $2 billion in proposed cuts and elimination to services impacting hundreds of thousands of Washingtonians, ranging from maternity support, hospice care, nursing homes, higher education, early learning, housing, and many other programs. While state agencies and lawmakers are clear the budget reduction exercise was simply an exercise (cuts take an act of the legislature), it is a testament to the severity of the economic realities facing our state.
