<div class="">Dear Spike and Elliot - </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
I’m writing in regard to the Senate discussion Wednesday about the UO Admin's efforts to regarding student tickets. In the chat Spike wrote:
<div class="">

<blockquote class="" style="margin:0 0 0 40px; border:none; padding:0px">
<div class="">16:07:55 From Spike Gildea (he him his) to Everyone : Technical corrections: Elliot and Spike met yesterday with ASUO Senate President Claire O’Connor, who asked us to co-sponsor her bill proposing a compromise that she had negotiated with
the administration. <b class="">There was no mention of the new mandatory fee.</b> We told her that we could not speak on behalf of the Senate, but that as individuals we offered our support and co-sponsored her bill.</div>

I can’t understand why Spike wrote this. The ASUO motion that you both signed onto as Senate Pres and VP is very clear. It says:

Full text below. Earlier In the Senate meeting Elliot wrote:

<div class="">16:01:49 we have plenty of time in the Feb 24 and March 10 meeting, and I’m happy to schedule more time to talk about this issue then</div>

<div class="">This is not true. We do not have plenty of time. The administration was hoping the TFAB would vote to support this new fee at their meeting Tuesday. It will be back soon, and the TFAB’s vote will be relayed to the HECC, probably long before the
UO Senate meets again.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Spike and Elliot, ff you did not mean to co-sponsor this ASUO legislation as Senate leadership, or just did not understand what you were signing onto, I hope you will make this clear to to the UO Senate and to the ASUO Senate and their leadership
quickly, and withdraw your support for this new mandatory fee on our students.
