Sheboygan letters on tutors, the economy, Glenn Grothman and MAGA
Here are this week's letters to the editor of the Sheboygan Press. See our letters policy below for details about how to share your views. April is National Volunteer Appreciation Month, and I'm writing today to celebrate two incredible individuals who have spent the last four years supporting our students. As AmeriCorps members with Reading Corps, Heide Doolittle and Crystal Fozard have dedicated themselves to providing extra practice and support to help our students improve their reading skills. Over the past four years, they have collectively given a total of 9,600 hours to help students succeed! Heide and Crystal work one-on-one or in small groups with students who need extra help building their reading skills. With their tutoring supplementing the excellent work our teachers are already doing, we've seen remarkable growth in our students. I especially have enjoyed watching them build strong relationships with the students they serve. I couldn't let the school year end without acknowledging Heide and Crystal and all they've done to support our students. It's been incredible having them as part of our school community. We're looking for more great people like Heide and Crystal to join our team as tutors. If you're interested, please visit Lexi Foerster Principal, Jackson Elementary School Sheboygan Finally, we have an economic genius in the White Housse. Businesses are having a real problem finding people to work for them. Some (not all) are even looking the other way when it comes to the use of marijuana. So, what do the brilliant economic minds in Washington, D.C., do? Put tariffs on countries to bring back jobs to the USA. The very jobs Republicans led the charge on in the 1970s and 1980s to send overseas. I was alive, and also a victim of this. I remember the Republicans' selling point: lower wages mean higher profits. You couldn't buy a job in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Even the great Ronald Reagen put a hiring freeze on the government because the government was the only one hiring. Or you could join the military. Even if we did bring all these jobs back, who is going to do them if people won't work for $15-$20 an hour? Do you think people in the United States will work for $2 an hour and no benefits? 40 years ago, Republicans led the charge to send jobs overseas — tax breaks for moving your company included because you kept your offices here. Now, Republicans are trying to bring back jobs nobody wants. GENIUS! Robert R. Ries Sheboygan While DOGE decimates the agencies of the federal government that were created by the people to protect the people, avian influenza has spread to the Sixth Congressional District on Glenn Grothman's watch. He and his cronies have not fulfilled their promises to protect the people's health and wealth. Quite the opposite. This administration, under his party's control, has put us at risk, both physically and financially. Throughout the utter chaos created by the executive branch, the Republican-dominated Congress does nothing. More significantly, Glenn Grothman does nothing but what he's told to do by the party bosses. Such a weak-minded and cowardice human-being is pathetic. Grothman fails miserably as a leader and does not represent the people of the Sixth District responsibly. Steve Jaeger Sheboygan When Democrats vote to 'save democracy,' consider its basic definition: 'Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch.' Fortunately, our founders, probably Ben Franklin, continued, 'Liberty is a well-armed lamb, contesting the vote.' That insight resulted in a new constitutional republic that uses the law as the well-armed lamb who contests the vote, limiting the savagery of wolves and safeguarding the peacefulness of lambs. In so doing, they created the freest, most dynamic and yet the safest society the world has ever known. Lambs and wolves alike rushed into this new country seeking both liberty and law — laws so necessary for everybody's self-interest that they can pass the scrutiny of two contentious houses of congress and the veto of an elected president — constitutional laws with the power to protect the weakest of the flock while freeing the energy of the pack. Wolves now torching their beloved Teslas to punish Musk's DOGE for exposing the appalling graft in Democrat federal agencies tell us what the wolves are having for lunch. It's past time for the lambs on the menu to act. Lions in Congress and on the Supreme Court must join the lions in the Trump administration and delete entire lawless agencies and exterminate any black-robed wolf who strays from its jurisdictions to prey on the flock. American lions — lambs well-armed with constitutional law — have made America great before and must do so again.

Texas adds Purdue forward Camden Heide through transfer portal New Texas coach Sean Miller has added another key piece to the Longhorns men's basketball team. Former Purdue forward Camden Heide has committed to the Horns via the transfer portal. Heide initially entered the transfer portal on April 2.
