News brief
ASUO Student Senate
holds its first meeting
The ASUO Student Senate held
its first summer meeting Tuesday.
Newly elected ASUO Vice Presi
dent Ben Buzbee presided, along
with senate President Kate
Kranzush and Vice President Do
minique Beamon te.
The short meeting concluded
routine business traditionally done
at the end of a fiscal year. Senators
unanimously passed several small
money transfers to correct minor
budget deficits. A measure was also
passed providing funds for DDS to
add safety components to vans.
Kranzush, who will be serving as
senate president only for the sum
mer, said the main goal is to allo
cate $5,000 to student groups for
summer programs.
ASUO Accounting Coordinator
Jennifer Creighton said the money
will promote programs such as
“conferences, retreats and to get
ready for next year.”
The meeting ended with no ma
jor changes.

Budget
continued from page 1
Tuesday, however, Republicans
caucused to re-appoint Hannon as
chairman.
Republicans were successful,
and on Tuesday night Derfler dis
missed Republican Sens. Steve
Harper, Charles Starr of Hillsboro,
Ken Messerle of Coos Bay, Roger
Beyer of Molalla and Democrat
Margaret Carter of Portland. Der
fler also added Senate Majority
Leader Dave Nelson, R-Pendleton,
and Sen. Minnis, R-Wood Village.
Sen. Tony Corcoran, D-Cottage
Grove, was convinced Tuesday
morning that the Republicans
would succeed in replacing the fis
cal conservatives.
“If they don’t replace these guys,
we’re in for a rough time,” he said.
Dave Nelson, who was added to
the budget panel Tuesday, said he
was still committed to protecting K
12 education and balancing the
budget, but that the top priority was
just to get a deal passed.
“We’re trying to find the votes to
balance this budget,” he said.
The Senate budget battle started
after senators defeated a House
plan last week calling for a 75-cent
increase in cigarette taxes, $100
million in across-the-board and se
lective cuts to state programs and
$20 million in restored money to K
12 education.
After the House bill defeat, fiscal
conservative Republicans wrote a
counterproposal, essentially a re
peat of May’s Measure 13, that
would have switched an education
al endowment fund to a school
rainy day fund and immediately
taken $220 million from it to aid
school budgets. This measure was
opposed by many Democrats, in
cluding Corcoran.
“Polls show that thing is dead at
$220 million,” he said, adding that
the measure would help schools
this year but hurt financial aid
prospects for college students.
Another hotly debated issue that
will come up in the next proposal
is the cigarette tax, which was ap
proved by the House but failed to
get the required 18-vote super ma
jority in the Senate last week. Some
senators believe that a new propos
al will include a variation of the
cigarette tax.
“The cigarette tax is alive, and the
next proposal will have it,” Corcoran
said. If passed, the tax will appear on
the Oregon ballot in September.

Liquor
continued from page 1
Critics of the initial changes were
concerned that mandatory sentenc
ing overrides a judge’s verdict.
“The code as it was first writ
ten, would have essentially said:
Regardless of what the judge
might think or the outstanding
circumstances, there will be a
minimum sentence (for the of
fense),” Kelly said.
City staff initially proposed
changes to the ordinance to make
city code match state law.
“Chris Kilcullen (a Eugene Police
Officer) came and talked to us,”
Harding said. Kilcullen told stu
dents that “the mandatory mini
mum wasn’t what (the ordinance)
was about,” and explained that
“the city of Eugene is adopting state
law into its books.”
The final revisions from the June
12 decision do not go into effect un
til July 13, as the bill has a 30-day
delay, Eugene Police Department
spokeswoman Mandy Fox said.
The mandatory sentencing in the
initial proposal would have removed
alternatives to fines, such as the Uni
versity’s BUSTED program. The pro
gram educates students on alcohol
related issues in place of a fine.
“I know people who went to di
version programs, and this has
helped them a lot,” ASUO Out
reach Coordinator Harding told the
Emerald on May 29.
Harding, also the president of Pi
Kappa Alpha fraternity, said that
although students’ concern over
the changes has died dpwn, there
still may be future revisions at the
July 1 meeting.
“It’s hard to say how much stu
dents have influenced things,”
Harding said. “It’s not over yet.”
