Voters have been waiting for Culver, Yoder

I find it refreshing and timely that Wes Culver is running for state representative and Carlin Yoder for state Senate. This community has been waiting patiently for the kind of person to be placed in both of these offices who really represent us.

Both of these fine men not only talk about family values but they walk their talk. They are men of strong leadership, and principles, who are pro-family, pro-life and pro-lower taxes.

They are not afraid to put themselves on the line to make a difference and will vote their heart and their conscience.

Our country is heading down a long road of destruction and until we put men like Carlin Yoder and Wes Culver in office to help us turn around, we are destined to ruin.

I strongly urge my neighbor's and friends to vote for Carlin Yoder and Wes Culver on May 6

— Carla O’Connell

  • READER'S POINT OF VIEW: Punish criminals, not patients

    It is truly gratifying when a bill I author becomes law, and even more gratifying when that law has an immediate and compelling impact on my district and the state of Indiana.

  • Insurance mandate violates religious freedoms

    The Health and Human Services mandate requiring employers to carry insurance that covers contraceptives, including surgical sterilization and abortifacients, requires Christian schools and charitable and medical organizations to violate their conscience or face fines of $2,000/employee. This forces Christian organizations to either close down or violate the mandate.

  • Hypnosis dates to Adam and Eve’s act of sin

    I saw the article on hypnosis in the newspaper and was reminded how far away this generation has fallen from the truth of God’s holy word, the Bible.

    As someone who has a loved one who is on a feeding tube, I’d like to ask you to please be aware when you are out in restaurants and be compassionate when you meet someone who is on a feeding tube.

  • Justice if different in Elkhart County

    A warning to the uninformed: there is justice and there is Elkhart County justice, and any resemblance between the two is largely coincidental.

  • Donations can help house families

    I read with concern the headline in The Goshen News on Wednesday. Our Goshen Housing Authority needs $571,050 to continue the local rent assistance voucher program and avoid slashing services. That is over half a million dollars. Coming up with that large an amount seems hopeless. The related article went on to say that 71 households with 126 children could be directly affected by this shortfall. That is $8,043 per family unit or $4,532 per child.

Poll

The Goshen Housing Authority has a $571,050 shortfall. Should the Goshen City Council use money from its $4.7-million “rainy day” fund to pay the debt and maintain the current level of service provided by the voucher program?

Yes, the Council should allocate all the money owed
No, the Council should not allocate any money
The Council should pay what cannot be raised privately
