Letters to the Editor for Jan. 22, 2013
I am writing this letter to encourage Camas residents to show their support for the upcoming Camas School District replacement levies on Feb. 12. As a junior at UC Berkeley I have been living away from Camas for almost three years now. In those three years I have experienced many new things and met many new people, but there is one thing that continually surprises me.

Proud of WHS students
I attended the Washougal High School Holiday Bazaar Nov. 17. It was great to see the different student groups participating. From students manning the Stuff the Bus table to the choir's wonderful music to the Interact Club's goodie table with the proceeds going to Uganda to even middle school students raising money for their basketball team. It was a great time shopping.

Speak up at coal hearings
As you know, the forecast is to have 24 coal trains rumble through Gorge communities. These slow moving trains are each 1.5 miles long. They will degrade life for a million people all along the route from Montana to Camas and from Camas to the proposed terminal near Bellingham.

Over the course of the last decade I have had the pleasure of watching Brandon Vick grow into a man of good character and an exemplary leader.

Where is the justice?
Our Constitution states “We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice,…” Yes, “to establish Justice” is stated in our Constitution. Where is “justice” in a tax code that allows millionaires and corporations to pay a smaller percentage of federal income taxes than our working citizens?

CCIA would like to set the record straight
Regarding Dawn Feldhaus’s Sept. 11 article “Candidate’s use of Grove Field parking lot generates complaints,” which described 18th District Representative and candidate Liz Pike’s use of the airport parking lot for her campaign fundraiser, CCIA would like to set the record straight.

Privatizing public works is a serious matter
In Dawn Feldhaus’ report of the meeting of the City of Washougal City Council, the innocuous wording would not make the average reader aware of the seriousness of one of the subjects being discussed – the City is considering giving control of the city’s water and sewer systems to a private operator. This frightens me.

Land being decimated by clear-cutting
I had never been to the Northwest until I moved here 12 years ago. I knew it rained but I also knew it to be a very beautiful place and assumed we would buy a house on a decent-sized lot, with decent-sized trees, and that our windows would be a decent distance from our neighbor’s windows. What a naive assumption.
