June 9, 2025Dear editor; Progressives are fighting to protect working families and make billionaires pay their fair share. But Republicans want to crush us to protect the top 1% and their own wealth. Bernie Sanders’ wealth tax would apply to the top 0.1% – billionaires worth over $32 million. It
May 11, 2025Dear editor; Dems have to fight back in order to keep our country. The other guys have been destroying unions that built the middle class and increasing economic inequality ever since Franklin D. Roosevelt (FDR). FDR got us out of the depression with public works initiatives putting Americans
April 13, 2025Dear editor; When you were little and made a mess, what happened? Mom or Dad walked in and exclaimed, What on earth have you been doing? Or What is this mess you’ve made? Either way, you were expected to clean it up. You learned to accept responsibility and
March 10, 2025Dear editor; March 9, a huge number of us had the pleasure to meet with District 14 congresswoman Lauren Underwood in Joliet. We learned the many suits filed and ways our courts are fighting back against White House Executive Orders and other illegal actions taken by South African
January 11, 2025Dear editor; Trump says: I didn’t do anything wrong; It was a perfect phone call; It’s a hoax, witch hunt; Fake news; It’s not Russia; I’m going to build a great wall and have Mexico pay for it; I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and
November 25, 2024Dear editor; If you want to win almost any argument or election, listen more than you speak. Find out what the people want and then work together with your fellow legislators (they’re just people too) to make it happen. Listening to people helps you hear how they are
November 18, 2024Dear editor; Are you seeing what Donald Trump’s Project 2025 has in store for all of us even before he’s in office? “America first” means America alone, but we have relationships in this world who depend on us as an international leader in economics, defense, and climate change
November 11, 2024Dear editor; You say you don’t like what Donald Trump says, but you like his policies. I’ve never liked lying charlatans who are after your money for their gain, and then to give it to billionaires with another huge tax break, while increasing our costs with tariffs and
October 25, 2024Dear editor: Still undecided? Donald Trump has been charged, tried, and convicted of 34 felony counts by a jury of his fellow New Yorkers where one of his frauds took place. If he’s like one of you, as he claims, why is he not in jail awaiting sentencing?
October 2, 2024Dear editor; Hi Len, Judy here. I just read your Reader’s Voice article in The Voice October 3, responding to my Reader’s Voice September 19. My submission was written with words straight from my grandson’s heart wanting solutions to end gun violence in school. I’m proud of him
September 25, 2024Dear editor; I found Ms Siedlecki’s letter in the September 19 issue very moving. In it she forwarded her eighth grade grandson’s letter citing his fears caused by school shootings in America. Such fears should never be allowed to surface in our wonderful nation. We veterans have fought
September 22, 2024Dear editor; Fake Electors are back in Key Swing States in 2024: Pennsylvania, 5; Michigan, 6; Nevada, 2; and New Mexico, 1.

September 12, 2024Dear editor; A young man speaks up about guns. That young man is my grandson: “Dear parents, I’m a 14-year-old 8th grade student in Jr. High in Oswego. I want to tell you how I feel about guns in school. I want to tell you how I feel
August 23, 2024Dear editor; Two friends and I attended a Fox & Friends event at Benny’s Restaurant, Friday, Aug. 23. After breakfast, one of my friends and I were standing outside talking to each other, when a man came by inquiring if he was too late. He then referred to
July 19, 2024Dear editor; Some of my friends say both presidential candidates are too old, Joe Biden, 81; Donald Trump, 78.

July 11, 2024Dear editor; Allan Lichtman has predicted the winning president 90% of the time since Ronald Reagan’s 1984 re-election. He uses 13 key elements, one of them being the incumbent as a winning key, so why is their talk of replacing Joe Biden? Joe Biden is one of our
July 6, 2024Dear editor; We needed the fireworks celebration after a rough few days, although I have never wavered from mighty Joe Biden. He’s young compared to a lot of people I know in their 90s and still with it. I’ve had the privilege of knowing people who lived into
Sunday, June 23Dear editor; As many of you are floundering over who to vote for, Joe Biden or Donald Trump, I say choose what to vote for, democracy or fascism. As a child, the poem “If”, plaque hung on the wall of our kitchen. I spent a lot of time
