Reproductive health

Reproductive health

To the editor: Voters need to know that Republicans intend to undermine all aspects of women’s reproductive rights, all of which a majority of Americans strongly approve. For example, the In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) decision by the Alabama Supreme Court making embryos created through the IVF process “Persons”, landed like a lead balloon. 03/13/2024 11:46 PM

Appalled by intolerance

Appalled by intolerance

To the editor: In a letter published in the Enterprise, county board member Kama Ross laments that she is “continually disheartened by public comment … and letters to the editor from county residents who do not check their facts before sharing their views.” She was elected. I am appalled at her lack of tolerance for opinions that disagree with hers. 03/13/2024 11:46 PM

Do the smart thing

Do the smart thing

To the editor: After reading the solar energy article on the front page, Feb. 29, I felt a need to respond to the “controversy” aspect of it. 03/13/2024 11:46 PM

Inflection Point

Inflection Point

To the editor: “Inflection point” notes that significant events or conditions will determine future directions and define future reality. Our country is now considering the election, for president, of a person who is demanding that his accolytes refuse to approve a border solution that they have united across the aisle to achieve, so he can use border conditions as a campaign issue. 02/14/2024 04:44 PM

Diminished faculties

Diminished faculties

To the editor: In response to the letter extolling President Biden’s age as an asset, we might be more open to the idea if he could find his way off a stage by himself or complete a sentence without a teleprompter. This week Biden’s own DOJ through its Special Counsel determined that despite a slam dunk legal case (willfully mishandling classified documents), he couldn’t be convicted by a jury, because Joe Biden is an “elderly man with a poor memory and diminished faculties.” Global threats have grown exponentially since Biden’s inauguration. 02/14/2024 04:44 PM

Reason for optimism

Reason for optimism

To the editor: While economies in Europe, China, and Japan are slowing, the U.S. economy grew 3.3% in the fourth quarter last year. 02/14/2024 04:44 PM

Social worker tax

Social worker tax

To the editor: In response to the letter from Judge Kromkowski, there is no doubt that she cares about children, but the Parenting Communities program itself does little if anything to help working families in Leelanau County. The early child millage would be better named “the social worker tax,” because it does not provide one cent for childcare in the traditional sense. 02/14/2024 04:44 PM

Grateful for efforts

Grateful for efforts

To the editor: I wish to thank Leelanau County Board of Commissioners, Wessell, Ross, Allgaier, and Kramer, for their service on the Board. Thank you is not adequate to express my gratitude for the dedicated, challenging, and often continuous work you do for ALL citizens of the Leelanau County. 02/14/2024 04:44 PM

Board challenged

Board challenged

To the editor: Good News! For most of 2023, I think that our Board of Commissioners had acted in a bipartisan, pragmatic way. They had put aside politics and worked well together to get their work done under sometimes difficult conditions. 02/14/2024 04:44 PM

Merger is positive step

Merger is positive step

To the editor: Merging the Administrator and CFO positions, as reported by the Enterprise, is a positive step towards addressing the organizational instability caused by the May 2021 Board vote. While some may question the timing or reasoning behind the merger, it offers a clearer line of responsibility and accountability for financial planning and administration. 02/14/2024 04:44 PM

Time to move on

Time to move on

To the editor: I attended the Leelanau Voting Commission’s public meeting to demonstrate how voting machines are tested to ensure that our votes are tabulated accurately and securely. The process is mandated by state law. 02/14/2024 04:44 PM

Pause trail extension

Pause trail extension

To the editor: In the pursuit of extending the Heritage Trail, we need to stop and consider the end cost of thisgoal. Climatechange has detrimental effects on all of us, and this extension defies our battle against it. 02/14/2024 04:44 PM
