Letter: Ruing the treatment of retiring Weber High principal

This opinion regards Weber School District’s investigation of WHS Principal Chris Earnest. Having been associated with Chris for over ten years at South Ogden Jr. H. S. where we both taught, I can attest to Ms. Earnest’s character and integrity. She has always exhibited fair and impartial ...

Letter: Positive politics coming to Utah via new bipartisan party

Is there such a thing as "positive politics"? After speaking to Utahns about this recently, most people don't seem to think so. Voters are frustrated over our divided nation and seem to be losing hope. Enter the new Forward Party! I recently joined this group partially out of curiosity, but ...

Letter: Shut down Congress until they can better serve the public

As a proud federal employee who works to defend government employees, borders, and homeland security, I find it insulting that Congress is so reckless with the American people and their pay.

Letter: Move governance forward with a new generation of leaders

The graduating class of 1999 entered higher education as the internet and computing revolution took full command of economic progress and technological innovation. We were deciding our career paths as the Twin Towers fell. We were entering the workforce as the housing market and general economy ...

Letter: Blake Moore doing his part to stop polluters like China, Russia

As a leader in supporting measures that bolster our national security, Congressman Blake Moore gets it: big-time foreign polluters like China and Russia destabilize the environment and worse, the U.S. economy. A “threat multiplier” — as retired flag officers across the U.S. Armed Forces ...

Letter: Why won’t Trump participate in the Republican debates?

Why would the Republican party allow Donald Trump to be a Republican candidate and represent the party when he refuses to support the party by participating in the Republican candidate debates? And why won't he participate? I wonder if he won't be in the debates because reasonable Republicans ...
