Letters to the Editor

WHEN we voted to approve our Covenant to join the American political family, that piece of document made us all citizens of the United States, and that, more than anything, makes it absolutely clear what our position is vis-a-vis the United States: what our privileges, benefits and also our respons…

MY Dear People of the Commonwealth: I write this letter of my own accord to share some insights with our Democratic Party now that Tina Sablan and Leila Staffler are no longer on the ballot. I have been a Democrat virtually all my life and have the privilege of being the first female senator to ser…

IT would be appropriate for the CNMI House and the Senate to send a resolution of appreciation to President Biden and the U.S. Congress for all the funds they have sent our way over the last four years to help cover our losses to Super Typhoon Yutu and the Covid pandemic. DON FARRELL Marpo Heights,…

INDEPENDENTS and Democrats combined will decide who is our next Governor and given the overwhelming majority of voters have already voted against Ralph/Vinnie it is a mathematical fact. Ralph/Vinnie have been busy trying to steal and even buy supporters but so far only two have fallen publicly so t…

WHY is Lt. Gov. Arnold Palacios continuing to hide the truth about his health from the voters of the CNMI? After losing to Gov. Ralph Torres in last week’s election, Mr. Palacios is again asking for your vote in the upcoming runoff election. Incredibly, he is running on the slogan, “Rebuilding Trus…

I WANT to start off by congratulating all those that ran under the AD 2022 Team and other candidates for their victory in this election. I am a witness to Arnold Palacios and David Apatang’s concern for the team’s candidates for mayor, the Senate and House of Representative. They put more efforts f…
