FEEDBACK | Henry doesn’t speak for whole county
You have made it appear that all of Adams County agrees with Eva Henry’s opinion (“Building a coalition to take climate action,” April 30). I, for one of many, am not in agreement with her statements.
I find climate change has been happening since the beginning of the earth, and little that we do will change what is happening. So, at the least, I am offended and disappointed that you would publish a piece that would paint Adams County as totally behind Eva Henry and her agenda on climate change.
Eva Henry does not speak for all of us in Adams County.

HUDSON | Population shifts defy political rhetoric
Miller Hudson Once preliminary census counts were announced last week, shifting seven more congressional seats into Western and Sunbelt states, there was considerable moaning and gnashing of teeth among Democrats while Republicans were gleefully prancing with delight. Neither camp seems to grasp the trivial impact of this shift, which merely expands the 40 seats already […]
BIDLACK | Polis sees the future in electric cars
Hal Bidlack I’ve made no secret of my respect and appreciation of our terrific governor, Jared Polis.
