Dear Ellen Cohen and State Representative Martha Wong:

On behalf of the Rice College Republicans and Rice Young Democrats, we would like to invite you to a debate for House District 134 at Rice University on Wednesday, September 20, at 7pm, with arrangements to be agreed upon by the candidates.

As a center of academic learning within the community, Rice University is uniquely suited for a debate for House District 134. Debate about ideas is central to our education and growth as Rice students, from the most philosophical discussion of the proper role and methods of government, to the most lively lunch table exchange about the day's headlines.

Additionally, as voters within the district, Rice students would be well served to hear the candidates talk about the issues that affect them on their own campus so they can make an informed decision when they vote on November 8.

The Rice College Republicans and the Rice Young Democrats would be honored to host you for a debate at our campus. We look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,

Ryan Goodland
Rice Young Democrats, President

John Stallcup
Rice College Republicans, President
