Tucson speaks up: Letters to the editor for the week of Aug. 12, 2022

I can't stop thinking about the couple Tim Steller spoke to at the polls, who are terrified of Democrats, as they will steer the country toward socialism and communism. I'm about their age and wonder where they hear this crap? I'm a Democrat and yes, I want public schools, social security, affordable, even free, health care, gun safety, choice for women, etc.. I bet this couple want many of these same things. These issues are nothing new, nothing to fear.
