Dear Editor, I would like to take this opportunity to endorse a true progressive candidate for Mohave County District 4 Supervisor, Jack Ehrhardt. Jack has worked with me through the past 10 years to protect one million acres of our beautiful Grand Canyon lands from uranium mining which would threaten its pristine beauty and would pollute the Colorado River with toxic heavy metals. Jack Ehrhardt, a conservative conservationist, has been and is an active local leader in preserving northwestern Arizona water resources for residents, municipalities and businesses. He is a contractor dedicated to building environmentally sound structures on native lands…

Dear Editor, The only conclusion one may possibly reach from reading some opinion letters in The Standard, is there must be something in the Kool-Aid the writer is drinking. How else can you explain (in this information age) the COVID-19 hoax, especially when the writer uses CDC information to attempt proving her ill-conceived opinion. She writes, “The DCD has just updated its statistics that 94% of the supposed COVID-19 deaths were not actually COVID-19 deaths. They were advanced in age and had 2-3 comorbidities, which in plain English means they died from natural causes or from something else.” She then…

Recently we have been asked to assist with two LaPaz County Stand Downs, along with the Arizona Department of Veterans Services and the Arizona Stand Down Alliance who provide the funding. We will…

Dear Editor, How much fire, destruction and death does it take to open the eyes of the blind? Since 9/11, we have seen so much death and destruction, and yet the people of America seem to have blinders on – can’t see and can’t hear. Did you ever stop and think that all this happening could be warnings? We have turned so far away from God in America that these are warnings to get back to God or face His judgment. In 2007 Obama and Biden told the American people they would fundamentally change America, and that they did. Destroying…
