In letters to the editor the author notes J Paul Oetken as the first openly gay federal judge confirmed and critiques Senate Republicans including Chuck Grassley for blocking a hearing for Ed Du Mont and stalling 25 nominating votes. The second writer argues over debt limits, budget cuts and WIC funding, urging protection for safety nets and tax increases while criticizing pension benefits for lawmakers.
