Initiative 1046 is on of two initiatives that I filed pertaining to higher education. The purpose of this initiative is to stop all funding to Evergreen State College with taxpyer money for the following reasons.
Under RCW 28B.40.100, the governor is responsible to appoint the board of trustees for The Evergreen State College and the lack of oversight by the board of trustees and the governor, along with the poor lack of judgment, have resulted in abuse of taxpayer dollars.
Taxpayers are supportive of liberal art studies; however, they will no longer tolerate that a state-funded institution hosted a porn week and has a history of bizarre behavior such as a course curriculum in ***** studies. As a result, taxpayers are of the opinion that the board of trustees and the governor use The Evergreen State College for the purpose of nurturing political support from the extreme left at the expense of taxpayer dollars.
The budget for The Evergreen State College is approximately one hundred sixteen million seven hundred eighty-two thousand dollars and the state deficit is from four to eight billion dollars, depending on who is presenting the accounting figures in Olympia. Taxpayers can no longer afford to support an institution of higher education that does not educate and train students to be responsible and productive citizens.
