                              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.

                              Arizona Daily Star editorial: Julia Benitez, 'la abuela,' must be released

                              Arizona Daily Star border reporter Emily Bregel reported last Sunday that our government is in the business of jailing confused grandmothers with no criminal history.

                              At 250, America needs civic parenting, not just civics classes | Julie Silverbrook

                              From the founding, Americans understood that a republic depends on the character and judgment of its citizens. In the years after the Revolution, that insight took shape in what later came to be called “republican motherhood,” the belief that the success of the new nation required raising children with the virtue, knowledge and discipline necessary for citizenship.

                              For a bunch of unremarkable warehouses, they’re generating a lot of controversy. Data centers — low-slung facilities that house the server racks and energy systems that underpin the digital economy — have become a heated issue on the campaign trail.

                              Local opinion: Why mental health education in schools cannot be repealed

                              Public health students at the University of Arizona are urging lawmakers to reject a bill that would end mental health education in schools, warning it could worsen an already growing youth mental health crisis and limit access to critical support.

                              In an earlier letter I wrote that Cesar Chavez be remembered for his historical accomplishments and not his foibles suggesting retaining signs and monuments in his honor. While Cesar was born in Yuma his achievements were in California and I also boycotted lettuce back then.
