Since the Republican nominee for president has already been decided, I believe that many Hoosiers are asking themselves the question, “Does it really matter if I vote in the upcoming primary election?”

There are even those suggesting that we jump party lines and cast a Democratic ballot so that party will continue to be in chaos by not knowing who their nominee will be. This may seem like a bit of fun, however, we need to examine the idea closer, as it could have some unintended consequences.

There are other important races in this primary, and if too many of us join “Operation Chaos,” we could end up with local and state representation that doesn’t represent our values.

This is why I have decided to support Carlin Yoder in his run for the Republican nomination for state Senate. Carlin is a man of integrity, a man of action and a man of responsibility, and I am convinced that he will represent my values.

As a small business owner, I am convinced that Carlin Yoder will represent what I value in business by encouraging innovation and business growth by limiting taxation and government control.

As a father, I am convinced that Carlin Yoder’s experience in education will contribute to improved education for my children as well as for all Hoosiers.

As a fiscal conservative, I am convinced that Carlin Yoder will work to encourage strong economic growth by cutting taxes and taking responsibility by eliminating wasteful government spending.

I am convinced that Carlin Yoder is the best candidate to represent the people of state Senate District 12, and I hope that you will join with me in supporting Carlin Yoder by voting for him on the Republican ballot in the upcoming primary election.

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.

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.

Bishop says HHS rules violate separation of church and state
On Friday, Jan. 20th, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) announced that almost all employers, including Catholic employers, will be forced to offer their employees health coverage that includes sterilization, abortion-inducing drugs and contraception. Almost all health insurers will be forced to include those “services” in the health policies they write. And almost all individuals will be forced to buy that coverage as a part of their policies.

Cut of Rieth Interpretive Center part-time coordinator will be felt
Praise, lament and wish encompass my feelings for the termination of the part-time position of program coordinator for the Rieth Interpretive Center in the Goshen Parks Department. Praise is for Melissa Kinsey’s effective, “full-time” effort in being the right person in the right place to work at the purpose for the RIC.
