Noting Education Week Dear Editor, American Education Week is Nov. 18-22. It is a celebration of public schools and an opportunity to say thank you to the many folks who come together to help our students learn and grow.

Fueling discontent Dear Editor, At $3.75 per gallon, why are the citizens of Warren and close surrounding areas subjected to long term price gouging? You don’t have to drive too far to find gasoline at reduced prices as much as 25 cents a gallon cheaper. I think enough is enough and this price gouging should end now. Just saying. Dale Lindsey, Warren Lack of faith Dear Editor, There is no “Christian” political party and almost all Christians in politics are compromised by partisanship and other forces. Not all conservatives are Christian and not all Christians ...

In the rough Dear Editor, What political advantage does Donald Trump have over Vice President Kamala Harris by discussing golf legend Arnold Palmers’ genitals on national TV? Is it mental sickness or fatigue? As much as I dislike Trump I feel absolute sorrow for him.

His subconscious words are appalling as are his multitude of lies. M.J. Shanshala, Warren Standing for us Dear ...

And she has long opposed any legal mandate to limit the number of hospitalized staff must be responsible for, ...

Continued greatness Dear Editor, Letters to the editor in support of Donald Trump often refer to Christian morality, and call him the “chosen one,” but that is difficult for the rest of us to understand when the man has broken at least 8 of the 10 Commandments. Perhaps being anti-abortion is their motivation, yet in the year following a six-week abortion ban in Texas, infant mortality rose 12.9 % over the previous year and infant death from fetal anomalies rose 23% compared to a decline of 3% in other states. Saving an embryo may feel right, but a day-old baby dying of ...

A clear, present danger Dear Editor, One of our current candidates for the most powerful office in our great nation is now talking openly about dealing with his political opponents, whom he now calls “radical left lunatics” and “the enemy from within,” by “handling” them with the National Guard or, “if necessary,” with our country’s military forces. This would apparently include all Democrats, liberals, protesters, and anyone who would dare to criticize him. In his mind, it is clear that anyone who challenges or disagrees with him would fall into this category, ...
