There’s no one to blame but yourself for missing class

Abortion bills waste funds and endanger N.D. women

There is a dark cloud over North Dakota this week. On Tuesday, Gov. Jack Dalrymple, R-N.D., backed by his Legislature, launched North Dakota into first place when it comes to states with dangerous laws that could jeopardize women’s health and personal medical decision making.

The truth of life trumps the slogans of abortion

I am proud to be a resident of North Dakota for various reasons. One of the primary reasons is that on Tuesday, Gov. Jack Dalrymple signed three pro-life bills into law, thus making our state the one that most clearly articulates the self-evident truth asserted in our nation’s Declaration of Independence: that all humans “are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.”

WSI pain bill ignores science, medicine

Legislation that is mostly under the radar at the North Dakota Legislature is shaping up to be anti-medical science and anti-older worker. Workforce Safety & Insurance, the state workers’ compensation agency, is pushing a measure that would reclassify pain as it affects workplace injuries and as pain might be a determining factor in claims decisions.

Other Views: N.D. keeps growing

North Dakota has been adding citizens at a remarkable rate. With a rapid increase in population comes growing pains, especially for communities in the state’s Oil Patch. Keeping a handle on those numbers can be critical in meeting the challenges of growth.

Other Views: It’s time to approve Keystone Pipeline

Sen. John Hoeven continued to push President Barack Obama to approve the Keystone XL Pipeline last week, introducing legislation that would approve the project even if President Barack Obama is not in favor.

Closures would hurt defense

The idea of a new round of military base closings has surfaced again in Washington, D.C., as lawmakers look for ways to cut spending as the nation’s budget deficit crisis continues.

Two bills not at all about ‘life’

Two bills in the North Dakota Legislature violate basic precepts of conservative Republican doctrine. The misnamed “personhood” bill and a proposed constitutional amendment (for the ballot) that purports to define life “at any stage of development” are outrageous intrusions of government into the most private and personal issues facing North Dakotans.

Vote sends wrong message

One day after voting against an amendment to provide money to buy out the contract of Hamid Shirvani, the chancellor of the state university system, the North Dakota Senate reversed course. In the second vote, the amendment passed as several senators changed their minds overnight.

Other Views: When a waiver isn’t a waiver

No Child Left Behind took Americans to school and taught us our schools, teachers and students are failing. The proof, we are told, can be found in the results of standardized tests. This is despite that North Dakotans take pride in their schools, believing they do a good job.

Wildlife and oil don’t mix

No matter how pretty a picture the oil industry and state officials try to paint, the impacts on wildlife and habitat in North Dakota’s Oil Patch will be significant, and not positive. Several studies are under way in oil country to gauge effects on sensitive game and non-game species, including the iconic mule deer. There is no doubt that as the number of oil rigs in the grasslands, Badlands and other places explodes from 7,000 to 35,000 in the next few years, wildlife populations will be severely affected. It’s happening already.

Thoughts better left unsaid

It’s never a good idea to refer to someone as a Nazi, especially when it’s a fellow member of the North Dakota Legislature. Rep. Jessica Haak, D-Jamestown, recently apologized for referring to Rep. Al Carlson, R-Fargo, as a Nazi on Twitter.
