It doesn’t seem that borrowing $30 million should be considered “restructuring.” It seems that is about the same amount it took to build the hospital the first time around. For the same amount, it seems a whole new facility could be built that might actually better meet the needs of the ...
It is most disheartening to learn that elections don’t have consequences in Michigan and Wisconsin. The voters spoke in November and elected Democrats for governor, attorney general and, in Michigan, secretary of state. In the past few days, Republicans in both states have been rushing ...
Way too many ads that came out and were broadcast over and over on the radio about a person’s character and motives for getting into politics. No need to have to go low with hurtful words to get a vote. This was truly not showing why to vote for the other party’s candidate ... or who we ...

In every generation, the world has produced enemies of human freedom. They have attacked America because we are freedom’s home and defenders. The commitment of our fathers is now the calling of our time. As we embrace and celebrate Veterans Day, we pay tribute to and remember the American ...
I am writing as a concerned citizen regarding the Neu-Cup driveways. This area has always been very congested because a lot of people turn onto Jackson Street and continue on to Breitung Cutoff to go to Kingsford. There are many businesses down Jackson Street, and a lot of semi-truck traffic. ...
Thursday’s article on the COLA increase in 2019 for Social Security benefits was very thorough, except for one factor — the cost for Medicare benefits. Maybe the government has not released that information yet and it should have been stated in the article. It sounds good to get an ...

In response to the news in the Sept. 12 Daily News, “IC to address student use of alcohol, marijuana” that a recent Upper Peninsula-wide youth survey showed Iron County ranks first in alcohol use among several grade groups and first in marijuana use by 10th-grade students: Why not take a ...
A plea to the tradesmen in our area — the carpenters, plumbers, electricians, “handymen,” etc.: Would it be too much to ask you to consider covering your “work boots” with those cloth booties/shoe protectors before entering our homes when you arrive for service? I have all hardwood ...
I keep seeing these “Loyal to Local” signs in the Iron Mountain area and I can’t help but laugh. Funny how these places want me to shop in their businesses but yet when these people go school shopping or Christmas shopping, they usually do it somewhere else, such as Green Bay and ...

I would like to thank the Daily News for the prominent coverage (Aug. 15, edition) given the recent grand jury report in Pennsylvania detailing 300 priests who molested roughly 1,000 children since the 1940’s. This type of occurrence is not new but still deserves to be reported every time ...

I can’t say enough to thank everyone at the Oscar G. Johnson VA Medical Center regarding my recent stay there. Dr. Gendron was so caring and patient in his care for me. Even though I can’t remember all of your names, the staff I had contact with were so kind, caring, and helpful. Nobody ...
What’s with people these days? Does everyone have that neighbor who feels they own the whole block but in reality only own one small lot. So they have way too much time on their hands and feel they need change your yard? Always trying to take over your property? It’s not even to ...
