I spent last week with the Galveston Beach Patrol in its Wave Watchers Academy, and wish to express my appreciation for this exceptional opportunity.

Thanks to the community, the Sunshine Center's annual Spring Fling was a huge success.  We had an outpouring of support — and so much fun. The clients that were able to attend enjoyed it most, and they're who it’s all about. 

In response to the article ("Voters face higher taxes to expand wastewater plant," The Daily News, April 15): Facts matter. The fact is the San Leon community has suffered for many years due to the very poor financial management of San Leon Municipal Utility District. The fact is if the prop…

When I first met Carl Gustafson, he was dressed in bunker gear and had stepped into my lab building while taking a break from refinery fire brigade training. At that time, he was a single father working as a refinery inspector, and putting himself through engineering school at Old Dominion U…

For several years, we've observed various groups attempting to gather information from island residents as to what to do to beautify our island and make it a better place to live and work. Most recently, Beautify Broadway and Vision Galveston. All of the presentations of the past have been w…

I didn’t know Carl Gustafson prior to him being elected to Friendswood City Council. I watched him closely and saw that he seemed to study issues, taking in information from all directions without prejudging, analyzing as engineers do, factoring in the human impact as engineers often don’t, …

This is a life-or-death power struggle that simply must be waged if we’re ever to get control of our institutions back.

Many attended the all-black Woodland Elementary and Lincoln High schools before the former La Marque Independent School District was integrated in the early '70s. In its heyday, Lincoln Auditorium served as the venue for many of the school functions and community events.

Mable Pratt is running for re-election as the representative for District 2 on the board of trustees for the Texas City Independent School District. Election Day is May 4. 

It’s election time once again in Friendswood, and while this year only has one contest to be decided, it's no less important than the previous years. I hope many of you will join me in support of Carl Gustafson for Friendswood City Council, Position 6.

Teresa Kumelski's letter regarding the Violence Against Women Act was less than truthful ("Weber voted against the best interests of women," The Daily News, April 9).

With the verdict from the Trump investigations having shown an incredible waste of time, money and damage to so many Americans' way of life and the degradation of American confidence in the FBI, Department of Justice and generally Congress as a whole, the media, in lock step with the liberal…

Declare yourself to be a long-term tourist

Kudos to Jack Cross for his commentary ("Newspaper has shown bias against President Trump," The Daily News, April 3). He’s entirely correct, and I couldn’t agree more. The media hasn't acted this unprofessionally since the yellow journalism days preceding the Spanish-American War.

The decision to maximally sanction Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has John Bolton's fingerprints all over it.

Six February/March polls, ignored by the mainstream media, caught my attention. Combined results of three U.S. polls show Americans prefer free market capitalism over socialism by a margin of 6 to 2, and 40 percent of Democrats prefer socialism. China adopted capitalism to grow its economy, …

A woman is murdered by a male intimate partner with a gun every 16 hours. Your mother, your sister, your aunt, your niece, your daughter, your friend, your neighbor.
