Statements have been published in The Stanford Daily questioning my campaign activities. I write to restate my apology for misleading the Stanford community to think I did not use virgin materials. As I said in my statement to GAIA on Monday, April 5th, I take responsibility for my actions and apologize for not upholding the GAIA sustainable campaign standards. Having recognized my mistake, I came forward and withdrew the acceptance of my GAIA endorsement on April 5th. I regret my actions and hope that this matter can be laid to rest. I did campaign on ethics reform, and if this experience has taught me anything, I know I will demonstrate and fight for a high level of integrity and honesty throughout my tenure as an ASSU senator.
