Letters to the editor for Dec. 28
At first, I could not wrap my head around the issue of a rail strike. Virtually every news story indicated sick pay was the eminent issue. With all the money that these rail corporations have, it didn’t make sense. Sick pay an issue in these times? Still, every story neglected the real issue and that is scheduling. Rail and air crews are limited to work for a 10-hour shift. Let’s assume these rules exist for public safety reasons. And, of course, for the safety of the crew.
The First Amendment reads in part: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press.” The Governor, the DCS director and the Legislature need to look at the reported current DCS practice of sending drug-exposed children home to substance-abusing parents with little drug treatment or drug testing. Many DCS workers positions are unfilled. Consider a significant bonus, pay raise, plus more support and treatment for families dealing with substance abuse.
