Letters to the Editor

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.

Three years ago, Susan Baughman left Indiana Sports Corp. after 22 years to be the president of the 2022 Indy College Football Playoff Inc. and Melissa Caito left ISC to raise the funds for not only the football championship, but also the future basketball events in Indianapolis.

Using more public funds toward higher education is not a reform-minded proposition; it’s adding to the existing funding model which is outdated.

There are literally thousands of health care workers, researchers and statisticians around the country working hard to make sense of the constantly changing landscape of this pandemic and the ever changing SARS CoV-2 virus.

Many parents do not have the resources, background and understanding that allows them to both actively participate and continuously push their children to learn and to excel. Great schools and great teachers cannot do this alone.

The reality is that anyone that wants to be vaccinated can be.

The governor on down is willing to let the disaster unfold and get worse. The economy and financial gain is the mantra for state government officials.

It’s sad to see the focus on suing the feds when the reality is that if our state government doesn’t start doing something to support our teachers and schools and improve school financials.

Why stick with high prices and announce you’ll freeze your high prices for five years to allow inflation to catch up to your high prices?

The proposed Window to the World project at Lafayette Square is the type of unique development Indy needs to showcase itself as a city on the move and show its diversity.

What is not questionable, is the more folks are vaccinated, the less chance of infection from current or new variants.
