Wetlands chaos

Could the Review-Journal please stop with the bogeyman propaganda?

The latest story on Rep. Joe Heck is typical (“Heck announces opposition to Iran nuclear deal,” Sept. 3 Review-Journal). When running for office, Rep. Heck runs as a conservative. When his vote means nothing, he votes conservative, such as by “repealing” Obamacare.

On Labor Day, let’s do more than attend a barbecue and lament the end of summer. Let’s talk about and commemorate the importance of hard work year-round and how our contributions to the economy make America work. Let’s recognize all of the men and women who are working for a better life, just as our forefathers did centuries ago.

ESAs improve outcomes

I read with interest Sylvia Lazos’ commentary on Education Savings Accounts (“Education Savings Accounts imperil public education,” Tuesday Review-Journal). It is obvious Ms. Lazos did not do her homework or was afraid to share how successful ESA programs have been in other states.

Defending his education budget (“Public vote on tax package sought,” Aug. 11 Review-Journal), Gov. Brian Sandoval calls the referendum filed by a group of anti-tax Republicans “a wrongheaded attack on the children and families of Nevada.” Then, listing nine elements of the program, Gov. Sandoval asks, “What will you cut?”

Finally, an editorial from the Review-Journal I totally agree with.
