I’m thankful each day I get up and there is a paper in the driveway that keeps me informed on what is happening in Anchorage.
We can make a choice to invest and house our citizens, or we can live with people in ugly encampments.
Alaska’s Legislature cut $480,000 for free school lunches for poor children out of the state’s budget, but opted to continue a $100 million tax break for Hilcorp.
While acknowledging that the Catholic Church is not perfect, it is excellent. I am proud to say, “Catholic,” whenever anyone asks what my religion is.

Should we put up a “good behavior chart” in our government buildings? At this point, it doesn’t seem like a bad idea.
I have written several pieces critical of — and lamenting — this state-run travesty. And I’ll continue to do so as long as it continues.
This delay and expense could be avoided if, like the state, Anchorage had ranked choice/instant runoff voting.
How much money was spent on items/school fees that should not have been allowed? And who should pay this money back?

My suggestion would be to put the PFD at $0 until a fiscal plan is completed; perhaps this might motivate our politicians to do less talking and more working.
My boy’s fears were assuaged because of how kind and adept a stranger was at recognizing how important this slice of independence is.
They see this nation as a protector of the weak. We profess to believe we are a protector nation. Can you understand where our children got their ideas to try and stop this slaughter?
Come on, Anchorage, you can do better.
This mayoral election is about competence, not party affiliation.
Thank you, Dr. Zink, for having the dedication, the ability, the courage, and the humanity to come through for the people of the state of Alaska.
The recent ADN interview with our own Alaska hero, Dr. Anne Zink, retiring chief medical officer, should be read from every pulpit and discussed in every classroom.
Audit and fix the HR department, and the problem will be fixed.
Vote and mail your ballot today or tomorrow at the latest. Remember: The deadline is May 14.
