LETTER: Nevada must make it easier for residents to go green

When I purchased my home in 2017, having solar panels was a significant factor in our decision. It was important to me and my family because it would greatly reduce the cost of our electricity bill and give us a reliable source of energy.

Our next goal is to purchase an electric vehicle so we can further utilize our solar panels at home and contribute less to the pollution that’s affecting our health and the environment. However, I’m still reluctant because I would like to see more charging stations around the city. If the state and urban cities in Nevada invest in widespread charging infrastructure, it could help not just me, but many other Nevadans out there to have the confidence to finally go electric.

That’s why I support legislation that will expand Nevada’s electric vehicle charging network. The future of transportation is electric, and we must start adapting now to accommodate more and more drivers making the switch to electric vehicles. This is one way to get polluting vehicles off our road and to make the transition to clean energy solutions easier for Nevadans.

LETTER: Biden ignores the Supreme Court on student loans

Biden is constantly harping on how Trump is a threat to democracy and will be a dictator, eliminating our freedoms. It is Biden, however, who has proven himself the dictator who is threatening democracy.

LETTER: More on 1968

As a cop who was at not only at the 1968 Democratic convention at the Conrad Hilton on Michigan Avenue, but also the Chicago arson fires on the west side, I feel there were many reasons why the city was a tinderbox.

LETTER: Clark County cracks down on street vendors

A lot of us walk or jog in the summer nights when it cools down. The juice vendor was a wonderful break before starting the return half of our exercise. Alas, never more.
