Minnesota health care in dire straits

To the editor: A few months ago I needed ER care following a procedure.It was determined I needed to be transferred back to Mayo. The physician informed us that ambulance transport after 10:30 p.m. has been nonexistent for several months and it was up to us to get there. An EMT/medic crisis? This can happen to anyone folks. The Star Tribune ran an eye-opening article in the April 7 titled “Hospitals too busy to train Minnesota paramedic students, exacerbating shortage”. Oak Hills bussed a group to the State Capital to influence the liberal tri-fecta that greater Minnesota’s ...

Speaker Johnson just doing his job

To the editor: I consider myself a mix of Republican and Democrat. And, at this moment in time when there is a Grand Canyon of partisan divide, I would like to applaud Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson. His fellow Republican representatives are trying to punish him for doing his job. Speaker Johnson seems to be actually taking into account ‘opposing’ viewpoints, and then trying to debate, tweak, and move forward on various issues. He seems to understand that even though our representatives are voted in by a specific party designation, ultimately they should realize that they are ...

We saw the partial eclipse

To the editor: The sky cleared for a few minutes and we enjoyed seeing the partial eclipse! We used solar glasses. Instead of darkness we were amazed by how bright it was. We did notice that the birds were agitated and more vocal than normal. Joe and Julie Gartner New Ulm

Corrupt Joe has got to go

To the editor: Joe Biden and his corrupt democratic party in just three years and four months have made America the laughing stock of the world! In my opinion he has not done one thing that is good for America. Everything he has done has turned into a crisis. Then he wants another four-yea term. We the American people can’t let him have another four-year term. We the American people can’t let him have another four-year term or we won’t have an America left! 1. Open Borders. He inherited a border which was pretty well secured and with some executive orders he turned a fairly ...

Here comes the judge

To the editor: We have more lawlessness in the judicial branch of our country’s government today, which is directly related to the increase of lawlessness in our predominately blue run urban areas, across America. As a parent, I found the most difficulty when trying to settle a dispute between two of my children. I learned that jumping to conclusions was always a failure. In any case there was always somebody who thought they were wronged. In Trump’s New York case, brought on by Laticia James, nobody was wronged,except Trump. What does this say about the judicial system in our ...

Free money

To the editor: I couldn’t help but comment on the March 28 front page article on Senator Klobuchar gracing her presence in the City of New Ulm for the announcement that the New Ulm Airport will receive $2.5 MILLION in free money from the United States Federal Budget to construct a new crosswind runway. I was somewhat surprised Tina Smith didn’t show up as well. First of all, I congratulate New Ulm in getting somebody else to once again pay for something that mostly the City of New Ulm will benefit from. I find it somewhat perplexing that anyone would spend $3.25 million to gain ...
