Letter: Nadolski good so far as Ogden mayor, but more can be done

Our new Ogden Mayor has scored a few runs in the first inning. Breeze airlines, $5 million for our canyon waterline and most importantly firing the planner that was destroying our city. So a couple of issues. What will you do about my 70 year street with iron waterlines? This 1000 foot road has ...

Letter: Response to remarks about so-called advisors to LDS apostles

On February 16, Mr. Thompson made numerous comments. Included were advice to self-proclaimed advisors and others who do not understand workings of God/the scriptures, Bible/scriptures are understood with help of Holy Spirit, Elder Kearon takes marching orders from heavenly Father not from ...

Letter: Utah Republicans’ questionable Trump endorsement

100% of the Utah Republican legislators, including the Senate President and House Speaker, just endorsed Donald Trump in a proclamation they all signed declaring he best reflects the Utah Republican Party “core values”. This is a man that has been found to have committed substantial fraud, ...

Letter: Join us at conference examining Utah’s climate

For half a century, I've been a relentless advocate for embracing the findings of climate science. I've noticed that, over the years, there's less outright denial of climate science but more what I consider misguided pragmatism.  They ask, "Why invest in cleaning up our greenhouse gas ...

Letter: Begging lawmakers not to punish adults via vaping ban

Vote no on the vaping ban!! It is absolutely ridiculous that responsible adults can't use flavored vaping products and would have to result back to cigarettes because parents can't control their children and monitor them. When are we going to stop punishing the masses because parents have ...

Letter: My thoughts about present dilemmas and possible solutions

Biden's age and abilities: the White House physician (or other qualified doctor) can test for dementia and dispel rumors. My mother had dementia 20-plus years ago; the test was simple. As a Registered Nurse that worked in hospitals, I checked acuity every time I worked. Trump's verbal acumen: ...

Letter: Confused Utah leadership censures Cline but supports Trump

I'd like to support and compliment Gov. Cox for signing legislation to censure Natalie Cline for her insulting post questioning the gender of a high school basketball player. A person in the role of public leadership, as Kline was on the State Board of Education, has a responsibility to make ...

I would like to publicly thank The Honorable Blake Moore, our First District Congressman, for attending our monthly meeting in February to give us an update on what he is doing and what is happening in Congress at the present time. The meeting was well attended and he gave an interesting ...
