What’s up with What-kins?
Dear Editor,

Dear Editor,
John Gillette is our Representative in LD30, to the Arizona House of Representatives. So what has he been doing to improve the lives of his constituents? Here’s three bills he has sponsored this year:
HB2806 would require Arizona to verify citizenship using a flawed federal system for everything from voter registration to health care and driver licenses.
Reply to Dennis C. Miller: Air Traffic Controllers were not allowed to strike
Mr. Miller forgot to mention Air Traffic Controllers were not allowed to strike, stated in their contract. When the individuals walked out President Reagan did fire them and set to hire individuals that would honor that contract.
