Corporate greed
Corporate greed
To the editor: Americans want financial security for themselves and their loved ones. But the pandemic exposed weaknesses in our supply chains, driving up prices that remain high, pinching our family budgets. 12/06/2023 05:33 PM
Washington’s words
Washington’s words
To the editor: Not long after Washington was elected as our first president, the Hebrew Congregation in Newport, Rhode Island, sent him a letter of congratulations. In that letter, the congregation wrote of their hope that the new nation would tolerate religious minorities, like Jews. 12/06/2023 05:33 PM

Poll has Trump up in Michigan
If you want to be president for four more years and your victory may hinge on your opponent being in the slammer, you’d have to say things are pretty shaky. That’s the harsh reality the Joe Biden for President campaign is staring in the face these days based on the latest Michigan swing state polling data from EPIC-MRA. 12/06/2023 05:33 PM
‘Aggressive’ Conservancy
‘Aggressive’ Conservancy
To the editor: As long time neighbors of the Leelanau Conservancy’s expanding Palmer Woods mountain bike recreation area, we have felt the impacts of increasing high-speed traffic through our rural neighborhood. We wonder why an organization that says its goal is to protect Leelanau County by being “unrelenting in preserving her beauty and ecological integrity” has become a developer of the Conservancy’s first high-impact recreation area. 12/06/2023 05:33 PM
Biden success
Biden success
To the editor: All of those complaining about Biden’s age and his ability to get the job done, need to pay attention to what he is accomplishing. He has shown us that experience counts when leading this nation and dealing with global matters. 12/06/2023 05:33 PM
A little bit of change…
A little bit of change…
To the editor: Reflecting on the recent letters from neighbors opposing the trail building efforts at Palmer Woods, let’s put a few things in perspective.

Request discouraging
Request discouraging
To the editor: One of the encouraging signs in local politics is the progress made by the bipartisan Leelanau County Commission over the past year and a half. We finally have a septic inspection ordinance (like most counties in Michigan), and a Commission seriously interested in solving our problems: affordable housing, attracting and supporting young families, protecting our fragile environment, and transparency and cooperation in government. 12/06/2023 05:33 PM

Dysfunctional group
To the editor: I read with GREAT interest the headline article “Board OK’s employee survey” in the November 16 edition of the Leelanau Enterprise. I have been a resident of Suttons Bay for over ten years and am concerned at the number of examples where conduct among the Leelanau County Board of Commissioners has demonstrated acrimony and or contempt. 12/06/2023 05:33 PM

Connections between food, church at Christmas
If Christmas was a one-act play, it would be performed at a dinner table laden with food, wine and conservation. Jesus would have it no other way, say Christian leaders in Leelanau County. 12/06/2023 05:33 PM
