DEAR EDITOR: As a member of the board of trustees of the McKinley Memorial Library, I was disappointed and disheartened by your Sunday editorial exhorting area libraries to fully reopen “with more urgency.” Based on Gov. Mike DeWine’s Responsible RestartOhio program, the McKinley ...
DEAR EDITOR: I am a dietetic student attending Youngstown State University. I am a mom and former employee of St. Joseph Warren Hospital. In the wake of COVID-19, many families are experiencing food insecurity for the first time, and I am deeply concerned by the disproportionate impact the ...
DEAR EDITOR: What great guys Donald Trump and Steve Mnuchin are! How protective of “confidential” information. After their chicken feed distribution to all of us, they distributed $511 billion to a much smaller audience of friends and supporters of their non-government. Their largesse ...

DEAR EDITOR: I suggest your newspaper ceases wasting money on syndication fees for Cal Thomas. I don’t know if he was ever “with it,” but he is certainly far past it. His tone-deaf interview with Newt Gingrich had their racial bias on full display. Could he not comprehend the sad ...
DEAR EDITOR: Regarding these protests, Martin Luther King Jr. never burned down businesses or mistreated police, even when President Lyndon Johnson had him arrested! He brought us together in peaceful marches, not the way the people today are doing it, lying to young people that all police ...
DEAR EDITOR: First of all, the death of George Floyd was terrible, and the officer, if convicted, should be sentenced to life. That said, it is quite upsetting hearing the press and progressive politicians continually talking about systemic racism. The USA has made great strides in race ...
