DEFENDING THE HEALTH CARE BILL
I don’t think that we should accept, as a state, the Republican budget proposal.
Making health care less easily accessible in this state is unacceptable.
With the anniversary of the Affordable Care Act coming up, we should be thinking of ways to improve access to health care to people across the country, not increase the hurdles they face. Johnny Urrea

WHERE IS THE TRANSPARENCY?
(In response to Katie Shoultz’s March 23 article, “USG confronts transparency issues.”)
How is it that Jacob Goulding has been able to create a personal campaign website two years in a row, yet his administration is still permitted to drag their feet when it comes to their online presence?
I created a professional-looking website for my student organization in a single weekend by myself for less than $200, and I’m a philosophy major with no web programming or design experience.
Surely an organization such as our Undergraduate Student Government — with a budget of $2 million and a staff of 30 plus students — can accomplish at least as much.
When will we stop deluding ourselves? Recall what Vice President of Services Tina Mounlavongsy said regarding tabling on the mall, “We obviously do care, because otherwise we wouldn’t be out there.”
The Goulding Administration would do well to apply the same logic to the USG website.
If it were a priority to USG, it would have been made easily accessible and updated regularly before this administration even took office.
And yet now it appears to be a moot point. The Goulding regime seeks reelection, and if this is any indication of the “Achievement and Experience” they are so proud of, I suggest students choose a more competent candidate.
