October 5, 2015

The Columbia Libertarians, in association with Our America Initiative and Columbia Political Union, are proud to announce a very special talk given by Former Governor and Presidential Candidate Gary Johnson, as part of Columbia University's Voting Week. 

As Governor of New Mexico, Johnson presided over one of the most successful administrations in the state's history, improving services while simultaneously cutting taxes and spending. As a Presidential candidate, he finished third in the 2012 Presidential elections, and is considering to run again in 2016. A defender of personal and economic liberties, Johnson attracts people from the left and right, pledging to uphold a woman's right to choose, drug law reform, and economic freedom, while cutting big government. 

Governor Johnson will speak Friday about his firsthand experience in challenging the political duopoly of the Republican and Democratic parties. He will offer his unique perspectives on a variety of key issues including health care costs and police brutality. Governor Johnson is an expressive and dynamic speaker who will challenge and delight people from all backgrounds and disciplines. He's not Right or Left, he's just right.


The talk will be held on Friday, October 9th, in Roone Arledge Cinema. The talk is expected to last from 4:00pm to 6:00pm. Please spread the word around campus and invite your friends. Please do not miss out on this opportunity of a lifetime.

About the Columbia University Libertarians

We are a non-partisan group that believes in the Libertarian principals of individual liberty, limitations on government intervention, and free markets. Here at CUL, we seek to identify and evaluate the implications of our philosophy of freedom in our rapidly changing, modern world, where overarching principal of liberty takes on more nuanced applications in practice. Members hold a wide range of thought on today's core issues, and we seek to expand upon these opinions in our meetings. We hope you will join us and participate in lively discussions!
