As a resident of Anderson and Madison County, I am asking for your support in trying to help me keep my job at Sallie Mae, and just as important, to help keep jobs in Indiana. Pending legislation is aiming to move all student lending functions under the federal government, which would in turn eliminate approximately 20,000 jobs nationwide.
From Madison County alone, Sallie Mae employs 309 residents. There are other lenders and guarantors from Indiana that would also be negatively affected by the passing of this legislation, and many employees from those companies (JP Morgan Chase, NelNet, USA Funds, etc.) also live in Madison County.
We have all seen enough job loss in the Anderson area and in the state of Indiana, so let’s not let this employer become another victim. Sallie Mae employees would be appreciative if you could join approximately 40,000 other residents to date and sign our petition at http://www.protectindianajobs.com.

Letter: Let’s work through the problems
On May 14 I attended the county council meeting in hopes that I could understand what is happening in the legislative branch of our Madison County government. What I saw was politics at its worst and I cannot applaud either party.

Letter: Columnist Brown ignores truth
It’s hard to understand why The Herald Bulletin carries columns by Susan Stamper Brown, who has such a blatant disregard for truth in her conservative propaganda.

Letter: Taxpayers should thank the ‘few’
Are those who worry about the loss of the wheel tax concerned about the roads or about their jobs? Most of them could care less about people’s needs.
