The Future of Our America Student Forum Monday, November 1, 2010 4:00 p.m. (Reception to Follow)
Featuring Gary Johnson, Former Governor of New Mexico; moderated by Joey Coon, Director of Student Programs, Cato Institute. Cato Institute 1000 Massachusetts Ave., N.W. Washington, D.C. Come back to this page to watch the event live. On the eve of a hotly contested election, Cato On Campus has invited Gov. Gary Johnson to offer a critical look at the issues Congress and the president need to deal with — including making government smaller and more efficient, lowering taxes, ending the costly and destructive war on drugs, protecting civil liberties, revitalizing the economy, and strengthening entrepreneurship and privatization. As governor of New Mexico, Johnson succeeded in eliminating New Mexico's budget deficit, cutting the rate of growth in state government in half, and privatizing half of the state prisons. During Johnson's term, New Mexico experienced the longest period without a tax increase in the state's history. He vetoed 750 bills in eight years, more than all other governors combined. The Economist dubbed him "America's boldest governor" — and that was before he took on drug prohibition. We hope you will join us for what promises to be a compelling look at our present circumstances, and a positive agenda for the future. Registration Cato Student Forums are free of charge.
