Letter to the editor: Trump has continued our nation’s ‘endless wars’
I am addressing Benjamin Holmes’ claim made in his letter of Oct. 20 (“Syria pullout defies military-industrial complex”). I do not dispute cautioning against the military-industrial complex. I do dispute his claim that our current president is challenging it. This year’s military budget is slated to be one of the largest ever, which will not […]

I’m voting for Mayor Ethan Strimling because he’s the only person in the race who advocates for all people in Portland: the young person starting a career who needs to earn a fair wage, the newcomer who needs a safe place to live and the children who deserve a good education in a good school. […]

Susan Collins has worked tirelessly since her first year in the Senate to help Mainers living with diabetes. Prior to Collins, there was no caucus in the Senate focused on diabetes. When she […]

Letter to the editor: Support proposed new South Portland Middle School
As a resident of South Portland, whose local taxes have helped to pay for every recent new school or existing school renovation in the past 25 years, I am writing in support of the proposed new South Portland Middle School. Recent headlines would lead taxpayers to believe that voters will vote on an expenditure of […]
