Dear Source:
Dear Senator Richards: I find it difficult to believe that anything off island can be more important than the financial concerns of The Territory. Each of our current senators is collecting a paycheck that includes the month of December. Instead of using (forgive me if I'm wrong) our tax dollars to finance trips to the states, please attend to the urgent business of our islands. Please help me understand what can be so important that you, our elected official must go to instead of addressing the budget and proposal to help fund capital improvements for us.
Linda Morland
