This morning I spoke on the House floor in memory of WSU President Dr. Elson Floyd. Dr. Floyd was a giant for Eastern Washington. He embodied the values we seek in our leaders. He was visionary. He was kindhearted. And he was a fearless and passionate advocate for higher education, our region, and our state. It has been my privilege to know him and call him friend. Thank you, Elson, for your tireless work. Rest in peace.
