Letter to the editor: Making good use of New Kensington’s riverfront
I feel it is more important now than ever to proceed with utilizing our riverfront in New Kensington.

They came. Migrants from Mexico, in their orange and black. Making their way through Texas and Louisiana, stopping in Florida and traveling up the East Coast, as far as Canada.

Letter to the editor: Kirk not responsible for his death
The headline “Kirk’s campus event polarizing” on page A7 of Thursday’s print edition is a bit perplexing as a continuation of the front-page story by the Associated Press.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. — After all of the wild, back-and-forth blows Saturday night at Notre Dame Stadium — from the first-quarter Irish blocked-punt-return touchdown to their botched extra point minutes earlier — it came down to this.

Letter to the editor: Long past time for a gun violence solution
Senseless, hate-filled violence occurs daily from people on both sides. The two parties need to find common ground with policy, particularly gun reform. Gun reform is not gun control.
