Wanda Gamer Cash serves as editor and publisher for The Baytown Sun, a newspaper founded in 1922, continuing a long tradition of local reporting and community service.
Baytown Sun editorials urge Texas action after Speaker Laney orders a legislative study of pipeline laws. They note only five federal inspectors for nationwide coverage and cite 392 spills annually with 200 killed over a decade. The piece emphasizes Texas vast pipeline network and Houston area inspectors.
The piece argues against using military tribunals for foreign terror suspects, citing constitutional rights under the Fifth and Sixth Amendments. It warns of executive overreach, notes over 1,000 detainees, and urges Congress to block authorizations or funding to prevent eroding civil liberties during the war on terrorism.
The Baytown Sun invites community input through letters and guest columns. Submissions must be original, signed, and limited to one per month, with a photo for guests and a non publication contact address and phone number.
The National Coalition on Health Care warns of rising insurance costs and growing uninsured numbers as Congress stalls on broad reform. A 34 percent cost rise by 2000 to 2002 could leave nearly 45 million uninsured, with Medicaid cuts and job losses amplifying the crisis. Mort Kondracke notes political paralysis risks a return to health care as a dominant issue.
A damaged read cites Texas officials including Governor Perry Lieutenant Governor Ratliff Attorney General Cornyn Comptroller Rylander Auditor Dewhurst Agriculture Combs and legislators Bernsen Gallegos Jackson Whitmire Ziranek Crabb Bosse with party identifiers and phone lines, plus Railroad Commissioners Matthews Williams Garza.
