Letters to the Editor

I believe that Indiana businesses and schools can partner together to create high school and college internship and apprenticeship programs like the one that started my career.

I have spent time educating myself on the details of the proposed project and am not only satisfied but convinced it will be a good opportunity for our community.

The proposal would cram far more density into and change the character of that side of White River, grossly violating the density principle of the city’s 2018 comprehensive land use plan.

Despite a relatively low density of our neighborhood, we already have occasional horrid traffic jams in the afternoons as the ridiculous intersection at Winthrop and Broad Ripple Avenue (and the Monon path) backs up traffic beyond the entrance to Oxbow.

By all accounts, most legal and judicial authorities consider Judge Jackson eminently qualified, perhaps among the most qualified ever nominated to the court.

In Indiana, any balanced approach to forest management in the state forests is unacceptable to the Division of Forestry.

Our teachers are poorly paid and often experience burnout because of the multiple roles that they must play. We should consider how our public discourse is affecting their morale.

She is as nimble and creative and resourceful as the organization in which she sought to instill these qualities.

I am a fourth-generation Japanese American and can lay out a litany of racist or racially insensitive acts that I and my ancestors have been subjected to for over 100 years including now.

The amount of litter throughout Indianapolis is progressively getting worse. Frankly, I am ashamed of how our city looks. Just drive anywhere and the road clutter abounds.

House Bill 1134 would have the effect of limiting frank discussions of racism and history and set up roadblocks to providing mental health support for students.

Our industries are much more concentrated and unions much weaker than the last time we had significant inflation.

We have a global pandemic. We have several very effective vaccines.

In addition to reducing citizens’ costs and court caseloads, another valuable benefit warranting note is that the Public Access Counselor’s statutory function has helped to increase day-to-day agency transparency.

Shame on IBJ for having such low standards.

Many people, including myself, choose not to get vaccinated because they have done the research, observed the results and found that the vaccines don’t work.
