Letters to the Editor: Feb. 3

Debt ceiling limitWhen reading a recent article, I learned of an arcane House of Representatives procedure called “discharge petition.” This apparently allows any proposed action to be approved by a simple majority of the House. This procedure is very seldom used, is very complicated , but will only require six Republicans to join all Democrats to approve an increase to the debt ceiling without requiring an approval by Kevin McCarthy to advance to a vote.

When the Republicans get caught trying to “cheat,” their answer is to change the rules. The GOP has no shame.HB2458 bans what students already talk aboutIt looks like the law proposed by Rep. Pingerelli is trying to protect Arizona students and their teachers from talking about past and current racism as if it is not even happening today or, if it is, they will not feel like they have anything to do with it.

I lease an electric vehicle. I believe that EVs should contribute to maintaining the roadways. Currently gas taxes are consumption based. The more you use the more you pay.
