Mike Yakawich: A Caring Individual
Dear Editor, Mike Yakawich: fidelity, sincerity, a caring individual. These are only a few of the qualities of Mike Yakawich, running for Montana House District 51. Few politicians have this distinction. None of these characteristics have been given to Mr. Y; he has earned them.
LR131 is Not a Cookie Cutter Issue
Dear Editor, I find myself in uncharted territory by writing a Letter to the Editor. However, the number of stirred emotions due to the proposed LR131 Referendum finds me here. With over 40 years of medical experience including Pediatric Nursing and Navy medical training, the reverberation of thought caused by the referendum itself and the […]
Shame on Walmart
Dear Editor, Two topics are heavy on my mind this week: First, I’ve really enjoyed the columns by Justin Choriki – that man consistently has great things to say about topics that certainly are on people’s minds these days. I hope we get to see more of Choriki in the future!
If LR-131 Had Been Law at The Time
Dear Editor, From her birth at 25 weeks gestational age, our daughter’s life was a miracle. 100 days later, one big exception arose: Fetal Inflammatory Response Syndrome. It was a parting gift from my unexpected and severe pregnancy complications. We call some infants miracles because they live through adverse circumstances when so many others don’t. […]
Gun Purchasers Beware

Moving on From Trump
Dear Editor, I voted for Donald Trump for President twice. I contributed to his campaign the second time he ran. I did this because I believed that he understood our economy and could help it grow. He did that, and I was satisfied with that part of his presidency. And here it comes: I became […]
SAME WATER, SAME SOURCE! Right?
Dear Editor: What is with the ongoing soap opera drama regarding the Billings Heights Water District? I have questions. Why do we even continue to have a “Heights Water District?” The “Heights” is part of Billings, mostly, right? Why are Heights’ residents okay with paying higher water rates than other Billings residents? It’s all the SAME […]
Remember to Think before you speak
Dear Editor, In today’s diverse world, we need to be less judgmental. I can safely say that it is, in fact, possible to change your thinking no matter where in your life you are. For example, a relative of mine once was very prejudiced many years ago, and it wasn’t until she held my niece’s […]
