Where is the justice? Our Constitution states "We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice,..." Yes, "to establish Justice" is stated in our Constitution. Where is "justice" in a tax code that allows millionaires and corporations to pay a smaller percentage of federal income taxes than our working citizens?
Support Shehorn for state legislature In recent months, I have had the opportunity to become acquainted with David Shehorn, who is running for the State Legislature District 18 House seat.
Following a tumultuous year, the rural Mount Pleasant School District appears to be making some good headway in its efforts to "right the ship."
With just more than five weeks left until the Nov. 6 General Election, candidates are ramping up their campaigns and doing their best to get voters' attention -- mostly in the form of political ads, mailers and phone calls.
CCIA would like to set the record straight Regarding Dawn Feldhaus's Sept. 11 article "Candidate's use of Grove Field parking lot generates complaints," which described 18th District Representative and candidate Liz Pike's use of the airport parking lot for her campaign fundraiser, CCIA would like to set the record straight.
It's late summer days like today -- sunny with temperatures that are expected to reach 90 degrees -- that make you realize how great it is to live in the Pacific Northwest. And Camas and Washougal are especially beautiful areas where a premium is placed on making sure there are plenty of parks, open spaces and recreational areas where people can enjoy the outdoors. Mother Nature does her part, but as citizens we must also take an active role in keeping our communities beautiful places to live, work and play. With that in mind, a number of service and community clean up events are scheduled in the coming weeks.
Vote for David Shehorn This November, Camas and the rest of the 18th District have a rare opportunity to send a qualified, considerate, intelligent and hard working person to Olympia as our representative.
Barack Obama and Mitt Romney tell voters they want manufacturers to stay in America and create new jobs. The president even promised an audience in New Hampshire that he'd create 4.5 million new jobs, half of those in manufacturing. Why all the talk about manufacturing? Our country is the world's largest manufacturing economy with 21 percent of the global manufactured goods produced here. China is second at 15 percent, and Japan is third at 12 percent.
Boys and Girls Club serves Camas and Washougal residents I am writing in response to the article in the Sept. 4 Post Record, regarding Washougal councilwoman Joyce Lindsey's desire to bring another Boys and Girls Club to our area.
This morning, the Camas-Washougal Fire Department held its annual ceremony commemorating the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. The heartfelt event held in Camas, thousands of miles away from the East Coast where the attacks were focused, is an illustration of the widespread impacts of these events on the United States as a country. Similar ceremonies took place around America yesterday and this morning, from Vancouver to New York City.
