Welcome back to E-PAC’s weekly newsletter – we are just 8️⃣1️⃣ DAYS away from Election Day 2024! | UT-02 UPDATE: Rep. Celeste Maloy WINS! | Following well over a month of recounting ballots, Congresswoman Celeste Maloy claimed victory in her Republican Primary for Utah’s 2nd Congressional District. Celeste was elected in the Special Election back in 2023 and made history as the 36th Republican woman serving in Congress. Celeste has been a key player in the House Republican Conference fighting to secure our borders, fix the economy, and represent hard working Utahn families. | “With the recent Utah Supreme Court decision, I am grateful to our supporters, our county clerks, and the people of Utah's 2nd Congressional District. I look forward to earning your vote again this November and working to advance Utah's conservative agenda.” | Watch Celeste’s message to UT-02 voters following the recounts here. | COLLEGE ANTISEMITISM UPDATE: Columbia President Resigns | On Wednesday, disgraced Columbia University President Minouche Shafik resigned after allowing antisemitism to spread on campus and capitulating to the radical pro-Hamas mob. | Chairwoman Elise Stefanik (NY-21) stated on X – | “THREE DOWN, so many to go.
As I have said consistently since her catastrophic testimony at the Education and Workforce Committee hearing, Columbia University’s President Minouche Shafik’s failed presidency was untenable and it was only a matter of time before her forced resignation. After failing to protect Jewish students and negotiating with pro Hamas terrorists, this forced resignation is long overdue. We will continue to demand moral clarity, condemnation of antisemitism, protection of Jewish students and faculty, and stronger leadership from American higher education institutions.” | Alison Esposito (Candidate for NY-18) stated on X – | “Minouche Shafik oversaw one of the greatest debacles in Columbia's history. She failed in her duty to protect Jewish students on campus. She should have resigned months ago. With schools entering their fall semesters in weeks, University Presidents nationwide must defend their campuses from the antisemites who destroyed our institutions last semester.” | WATCH: New Ads from Oregon GOP Women | This week, GOP women in Oregon dropped new ads to enthuse voters behind their campaigns.
