Local opinion: The Mexican grey wolf is still endangered and needs your voice (or howl!)

  • Hollie Colahan and Norberto J. (Bert) Castro Special to the Arizona Daily Star

Conservationists warn that new legislative efforts could undermine decades of work to restore the endangered Mexican grey wolf to the wild. Supporters say the species’ recovery remains fragile despite recent population growth in Arizona and New Mexico.

      Local opinion: Protect Education Act petitions and your tax dollars

      • Patricia Woodbury-Kuvik Special to the Arizona Daily Star

      A letter argues that Arizona’s Protect Education Act would not eliminate ESA vouchers, but instead add accountability and oversight to a program that has expanded far beyond its original purpose of serving students with disabilities.

        Letter: The deportation shell game

        • Suzanne Ferguson, East side

        Reading the reports of huge new warehouses being bought for renovation for “millions” of illegal immigrants, I set out to discover how many have actually been deported since January 2025. Not millions: by the DHS’s own figures, there may have been 605,000 deported in 2025—but that may includ…

        • Ron Lancaster, North side

        Cruelty has a new champion. Donald Trump has proven worthy of the title. He looks under every stone to find ways to create trouble and suffering for the least of us. He is making his mark on the world with his hateful grimace and hard heart.

        • David Morales, Northwest side

        Why do people lie? It is simple to hide something that will hurt them, and for many other reasons. So why did President Trump say he won the election of 2020 presidential election. Albeit he lost the election. He claims the election was stolen from him; albeit the courts say different. This …

        • William Lauffer, Oro Valley

        All of a sudden Donald Trump needs congressional approval to reduce the federal gas tax to help the American public with the continued increases caused by his war in Iran. By the way did he seek Congressional approval to start this war and cost our country over twenty five billion dollars. H…

        Decluttering till death do we part | Froma Harrop

          Margareta Magnusson was an artist in Stockholm who wrote a bestselling book, "The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning." Decluttering, the removal of unnecessary items from our living spaces, had already become an international obsession. That was doubly so for Americans, whose large houses became easy repositories for the cheap goods arriving by container ship from low-wage countries.

                  Letter: Lunch in the ballroom

                    America is a strange land where school lunches are considered socialism but a taxpayer funded billion dollar ballroom is patriotism.

                      George Will had a pointed column on 05/13 about today's youth, their education, the jobs they take what they find the workplace and how they feel about all this. He ends his piece equating socialism with infantilism.

                      Local opinion: A dismissive editorial peers through rose-colored glasses

                      The Herald has missed its mark in offering us reassurance of the court’s stability and the strength of democracy. And when it values confidence over honest scrutiny, its words ring hollow.
