Letters to the Editor
The More Damage is Done
To the editor: “I don’t give a damn that your house gets flooded.” The State of Vermont has continuously raised up the road, three feet so far, that crosses the valley in front of my home over the 68 plus years I have been on this property. With their last[Read More…]

She’s Not Extreme
To the editor: Politicians tend to make statements like, “I support affordable housing, small rural schools, clean water,” or my favorite “I will work to address climate change.” They all say this stuff because who wouldn’t if you want voters’ support.
