Letters to the Editor for Sept. 26
AttributesIt is time to focus on the kind of people we want to represent us and our interests in Arizona. To that end, I made a list of attributes and actions that I want and don’t want in candidates and elected officials.
They must support public education! They must protect the environment, especially water. They must respect the will of the voters and support democracy. The legal right of a pregnant mother to autonomy over her own body should be protected. The decision to have an abortion should be private and up to each pregnant woman and her medical provider. Police should not be tasked with jailing pregnant women and doctors, when they should be jailing actual criminals. Individual liberty, and a woman’s bodily autonomy, should be of paramount concern to our Governor, our medical community, our legislature, our courts, Mr. Brnovich and the Republican Party.
You might also be one if you think the Jan. 6th mob that stormed the Capitol were patriots. How do you feel about voting for Trump knowing he would pardon them? You must like a leader having complete power, and free to suppress the opposition. V-Dem downgraded U.S. democracy, primarily because of Republican attacks on small “d” democratic norms, ie. voting restrictions, denial of election results, and demonization of opponents, while concluding that the Democratic party still upholds these norms. Current Democratic candidates are primarily moderates; a large number of Republican candidates are MAGA. There is no symmetry in the effects of the MAGA wing and the progressive wing on their respective parties and policies.
