																							| Letter: Mike Boyd Hasn't Changed |  
																							| Jan. 29, 2018 |  
																							|  |  
																							| "Re: the Jan. 27 guest column "Progressive policies hurt minorities, working poor." 
 Former member of the Pima County Board of Supervisors Mike Boyd returned from a 20 year absence with a new angry and intolerant attitude. According to Mike there is some merit to "progressive" ideas like DACA, the notion of global warming and the pursuit of alternatives to fossil fuels. The problem he has is with those progressives who are ALL rabid in pursuit of their agenda. No solutions are offered to any of the complex issues raised. Same Mike Boyd we remember from back in the day. Nothing positive to add to the conversation. Just angry and an out in the open Trumper. Talk to you in another 20 years, Mike.
