I've watched the Baja races on TV and seen spectators close enough to the race course to touch the race vehicles as they go screaming by at high speed.

Labor Day is a celebration of working people everywhere. It recognizes what the middle class has built and the power of our shared vision.

Thank you, Assemblyman Domenick DiCicco, for wanting a full audit of the Delaware River Port Authority. The residents that rely on the bridges and PATCO need people like you to uncover the wasteful spending in bureaucracies like this one.

As our governor continues his destruction of the public school system and pension system -- that will not be funded again by our elected officials this year -- he has again made his word the law of the land.

I've been a parishioner of St. Anne's Church in Westville for 47 years. We at St. Anne's do a lot here for the poor. We provided food for the needy families. Our food pantry provides food for the everyday meals as well as the holidays.

I am a senior citizen and had several issues with Medicare. I contacted several members of Congress by fax, phone and e-mail about nine months ago. All were accessible and responded except the office of U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez, D-N.J.
