Speaker 2: made with one hundred percent and blue Weber agave. According

50
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 2: to the suit, testing found that the tequila contains significant

51
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 2: amounts of non agave sugars and alcohol, so much so

52
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 2: that it doesn't even qualify as tequila. The suit claims

53
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:20,920
Speaker 2: Costco violated the Rico Act and consumer protection laws. A

65
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:08,320

67
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,360

68
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:15,800

72
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,839

73
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,919

00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,480
Speaker 5: in the offices of diversity, equity and inclusion, and students

75
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 5: just have no say about that.

76
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 6: So the students feel like they've been sidelined in university's

77
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 6: decision making process. He says. The Education Freedom Project put

78
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,680
Speaker 6: out a survey to over one thousand students, parents, faculty,

79
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,640
