Letter: Reject Initiative 2117

September 28, 2024, 6:00am Letters to the Editor

What do 450 organizations and tribal nations in Washington have in common? They all are opposed to Initiative 2117, which would cut funding for clean water and air, wildfire prevention, transportation, Native communities, farmers, salmon recovery and assistance for low-income households.

Letter: Support Oneil for utility

September 28, 2024, 6:00am Letters to the Editor

James Oneil gets my vote for Clark Public Utilities commissioner. A longtime Clark County resident, business developer and involved community member, Oneil understands the role of commissioner in a changing Northwest energy industry environment. Read story

Letter: Harris is better candidate

September 28, 2024, 6:00am Letters to the Editor

Trump lost the debate in my opinion. Trump wasted time talking about things that weren’t relevant to the topic or not true. Kamala Harris was informed and prepared for the debate. Read story

Letter: County should keep golf course

September 28, 2024, 6:00am Letters to the Editor

I don’t know what is more outrageous, the decision by Clark County commissioners to sell one of the two public golf courses in the county, or acting like tinpot dictators making that decision in secret completely out of the public eye. Read story

Letter: Presidential choice is easy

September 26, 2024, 6:00am Letters to the Editor

I read letters to The Columbian from people who don’t see a difference between the presidential candidates and, honestly, I’m flummoxed. Read story

Letter: Rhetoric ignores real problems

September 26, 2024, 6:00am Letters to the Editor

Eating pets and lowering taxes seems to be the major emphasis of political talk these days. Little is said about the real problems ahead — out-of-control debt and climate. These are the two conditions that will prove to be the most devastating — the forces that could change everything. Read story

Letter: Vote wisely for the people

September 26, 2024, 6:00am Letters to the Editor

Isn’t it crazy how we have to fight our government? (“Challenging government is uphill legal battle” The Columbian, Sept. 21). It sure would be nice if we had a system that provided the people representation, with the authority to enforce transparent review and appropriate corrective action to problems reported by… Read story

Letter: Harris hasn’t earned vote

September 26, 2024, 6:00am Letters to the Editor

Diana Stack Roberts needs to fact check herself (“Study facts about domestic terrorism,” Our Readers’ Views, Sept. 12). The “good people on both sides” lie taken out of context. That Biden and Harris as well as the media perpetuate this lie is deplorable. Read story

Letter: Golf course sale is questionable

September 26, 2024, 6:00am Letters to the Editor

I am feeling some strong déjà vu lately. Mr. Medvigy reports that the Clark County Council has decided, in an executive session (not open to the public or the media), to sell off the last remaining public golf course in the county. He states that when the council is ready… Read story

Letter: Sensibility is at risk

September 26, 2024, 6:00am Letters to the Editor

It’s another election year, which means it’s another year to pretend to care about the livelihood of the nation. As a 29-year-old, I’d like to thank all those older than my generation for creating this political landscape. All while blaming us for not wanting to play the game you all… Read story
