                            Local opinion: How the Regents’ Cup provided a meaningful platform for my voice to be heard

                            Local opinion: How the Regents’ Cup provided a meaningful platform for my voice to be heard

                            The following is the opinion and analysis of the writer:

                            Local opinion: TEP is an existential threat to Tucson

                            Local opinion: TEP is an existential threat to Tucson

                            TEP is a for-profit monopoly owned by a Canadian corporation with major investors who don't live here, so the millions in profits we send them annually is a massive wealth drain on Tucson.

                            Local opinion: Waiting for Iran to become an immediate threat is folly

                            Local opinion: Waiting for Iran to become an immediate threat is folly

                            Do I wish there would have been better planning, explaining and coalition-building by this administration? Absolutely. But I am resolutely opposed to not considering the long-term safety of this country and civilization.

                            Dallas Dukes: The facts and future of TEP's franchise agreement

                            Our new franchise agreement also will be accompanied by a separate Energy Collaboration Agreement that commits TEP to providing significant funding for efforts that support the City’s Climate Action and Adaptation Plan.
