Letter to the editor: Coronavirus ‘not just about you’

I heard it again at the grocery store, the loud boastful, “If I get it, I get it,” as if to say “I don’t need to take any precautions.” Yes, you are young and healthy and most likely would survive the virus. But no, this is not just about you....

Mail-in voting is the best way to ensure that the November 2020 election can proceed safely despite the coronavirus pandemic.

Editorial: Pandemic state prison release a bad idea

Letter to the editor: A covid-19 tax will be coming to Pa.

Does anybody remember the Johnstown Flood of 1936? Yeah, me neither. But do you know that in 1936, Pennsylvania enacted a “temporary” liquor tax in order to help pay for the damages caused by that flood? At the time, it was 10%; today, it is 18%. Fast-forward to 2020 and...
