Letter to the editor: Sen. King reveals truth behind rise in gas prices
Kudos to Sen. Angus King, who very recently, on the floor of Senate, laid out the truth about high gas prices. I would first say that part of this is due to supply chain disruptions, caused by the global pandemic as well as the invasion of Ukraine by the horrible Russian dictator Vladimir Putin. But, […]

Letter to the editor: What kinds of Russians attack hospitals?
Reading the ghastly news about Russian bombing of health facilities in Ukraine, I want to encourage people to wonder how Russia is motivating people to carry out this type of mission. The photos of Ukrainians fleeing and suffering show that they are just like us. The Russian military is composed of people just like us. […]

Letter to the editor: Teacher Gabe Walker will be sorely missed
A friend emailed yesterday with the sad news of Gabe Walker’s passing. He’d seen Melanie Creamer’s lovely obituary in the March 12 Press Herald. I knew Gabe for many years – we were “gym rats” at the USM Sullivan Gym in Portland. I was struck by his calm, friendly demeanor, warm smile and amusing, loping […]

I liked a more secure southern […]

Letter to the editor: Kudos to Sen. Collins for work on infrastructure
As another winter fades and traffic begins to rise, the state of our country’s infrastructure will soon rear its ugly head once again. However, this time we can look to the future with optimism, thanks to the passage of the infrastructure package Sen. Collins helped negotiate in Washington. A truly bipartisan effort, this legislation will […]

Letter to the editor: Vote ‘No’ on RSU21 recall efforts
Last week’s display of rudeness and belligerence towards our all-volunteer RSU 21 school board was alarming. We continue to see these trends nationally, and hoped we’d be immune to these bullying and aggressive approaches. It is clear we are not. Behind a small minority of voters attempting to impose their will through a cruel, unjustified […]
