Major value to the community

Schedule conflicts prevented me from attending the Dedication Ceremony honoring Ken Larson. But I think it is important for his family and the community to know about another example of how Ken went beyond the typical PA DOT District Engineer’s role. When I was Executive Director of Lycoming County Planning Commission the need to rebuild the Market Street Bridge over the Susquehanna was announced, so I called Ken and met with him. I explained that there was a need to offer a safe connection between Williamsport and South Williamsport/Duboistown that would not require people to drive ...

Vote for Tsai

On Nov. 4th, Pennsylvania voters will cast ballots for a new judge on the Commonwealth Court and I will be voting for Judge Stella Tsai for that position. Commonwealth Court rules on matters involving state and local government, regulatory agencies, and other disputes tied to public policy, including election laws, education funding, environmental and zoning regulations, and labor issues; decisions which often have profound local impact. Judge Tsai has years of legal and judicial experience. Serving in her ninth year as judge on the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas, she is also a ...

Vote for Neuman

I’m voting for Brandon Neuman because he has extensive experience presiding over exactly the types of cases that would go to the PA Superior Court. Cases involving a wide range of legal issues, including criminal convictions, contract disputes, property disputes, custody issues, and more. Judge Neuman is serving in his eighth year as Judge on the Washington County Court of Common Pleas. He was elected on both Democratic and Republican ballots in this traditionally conservative county because his community knew that he was someone who would be fair and impartial on the ...

We love you, Mr. President

After trying to wrap my brain around the radical views of the left, I am strongly convinced that they are vehemently jealous of President Trump. This jealousy has turned into unyielding hatred. How can you explain the radical left wanting criminals to stay in their cities? Could it be Trump Derangement Syndrome? The radical left are so jealous of the huge successes President Trump has made for our country, because it makes the Democrats look like total failures. Every monumental success, President Trump accomplishes, the radical left strongly disapprove. They have tried everything in ...

Garbage

Regarding the Oct. 21 letter to editor titled “A version of recycling” —I’m surprised that you would print such garbage. During the invasion of our southern border in the Biden administration, Florida and Texas needed help dealing with illegal immigrants, so they sent some of them to sanctuary sites who felt that Florida and Texas should have to deal with it all. Now, Florida and Texas are helping to process these illegals and criminals for deportation, and kudos to them for it. We have to make life safer. The writer’s evaluation of this is typical left-wing lack of ...

John Adams

In 1800, John Adams, the second President of the United States, wrote a letter to his wife on the day he moved into the White House. He wrote “I pray Heaven to bestow the best of blessings on this House and all that shall hereafter inhabit it. May none but honest and wise men ever rule under this roof.” How far we’ve strayed!
