YISD–future agenda items

January 28, 2018

This portion of the Wednesday, January 17, 2018 Ysleta independent school district board of trustees meeting agenda is commendable.

They are not committing to handle those items and they are not telling us that they will not handle other items.

They are simply letting the public know about what they currently think they will be handling.

This is better

Help for those who cannot see

January 13, 2018

If anyone out there knows anyone in the shampoo business please forward this to them:

Would you please mark your containers so that those of us who do not wear eyeglasses in the shower can tell the difference between the shampoo and the conditioner?

You might consider putting a big “C” on the conditioner bottle.  Maybe the “C” could go on the top of the cap.

A big “S” on the shampoo bottle would be nice too.

We deserve better

January Congressional Candidate Forums

Dear Xavier,

Local campaigns are now underway, with Early Voting starting on February 19. Of particular significance is Texas’ 16th Congressional District race, which features high-profile candidates, of which one will face the daunting task of representing El Paso during these turbulent times in Washington DC.
So far the issues of immigration reform, climate change, renewable energy, labor issues, health care, foreign and economic policy, and education have largely been overlooked in favor of political gamesmanship.
However, the opportunity to interact with grassroots advocates at our community-based forums will provide the candidates insight to local efforts, and help them formulate legislation that best serves all members of our local and global community.
