Cellphones create too many distractions. They are the main reason kids are not learning the way they should.

Yes, for the most part. There are a few instances where they should be allowed such as the downloading of apps that help with, say, science classes and so forth. Otherwise, they are a huge distraction.

If the family needs to contact the child in an emergency, they can call the school and the school can relay the message to the child. It worked for me in the 60's and 70's, it can work now too.

Technology is such a major part of our lives that none of us can escape it. It comes with responsibility and accountability which seems to be the hardest part of the equation. No doubt they can be a distraction but safety and convenience play a bigger part in my opinion.

The federal budget deficit would be EASILY diminished if the Rs in Congress would vote to make the tax system fairer by making the top richest pay their fair share. But they won't. They'd rather take from the poor+ middle class and sale public lands vs. doing the obvious and fairest remedy!!

It is a shameful idea. These lands belong to all of us, and are not for sale.

Hey, If Mike Lee wants to sell Utah's public lands, see how his constituents like it with theirs. Stay away from Oregon and the other states who don't like it. If Trump wants his big ugly bill to pass, reimburse the government for what the taxpayers pay for his golfing at his resorts + his parade.

This would be a crime and one that is irreversible. If Trump needed the money so bad, maybe he shouldn’t have spent our hard-earned tax money on his birthday parade. I am a public land owner and I oppose this proposition. How dare Mike Lee try pulling off this crap on us. We’re not stupid.

Public lands are our heritage due to the foresight of great individuals. Only those interested in profiteering propose and support the rape of Oregon and public properties.

The terminal expansion is exciting and so needed! This airport is nice already but expanding and updating it is necessary given the growing demand. My family and I use it regularly and we look forward to more travel options and amenities.

I wouldn't use the word "excited," but it will be a welcome change!

More & bigger planes? Huge power lines coming in basically to support data centers. Central Oregon is long gone from the gem it once was.
