Hampton Bays Moment

As commander of Hand-Aldrich Post 924, I want to thank the community of Hampton Bays for their generosity in the November 8 Bucket Brigade. On that Saturday, our members set up a Bucket Brigade in front of our Legion Hall to raise funds for new flags to be placed on the utility poles along Montauk Highway and Ponquogue Avenue next spring. Your readers may have noticed that some of the flags currently gracing the utility poles have fallen into disrepair. We were able to raise enough to replace all the flags that are currently flying in Hampton Bays. This clearly ... by Staff Writer

Donate Food

Thank you for your editorial in the November 6 issues [“Stop the Hunger”], in which you urged all of us to contribute to our local food pantries now because of the suspension of federal SNAP benefits. Emphasizing that this is not a partisan issue, I made similar requests to local Democrats during the recent campaign, as well as more recently this last weekend. We can each find food pantries nearest us by going to the Town of Southampton website and putting “local food pantries 2025 v2” in the search box. To this list, please add Bay Street Theater, Sag Harbor. ... by Staff Writer

Restore Voting Power

Jess McNerney’s Letter to the Editor [“Closer Look,” October 30] aptly pointed to the democratic process here in Southampton Village. Big-money contributions, secrecy of governmental activities, consolidation of power, and other trends have emerged, endangering the abilities of citizens to engage in the operations of the village. We could be reduced to mere observers of the operations of the village providing we were even allowed to be observers, given the attempts at governing in the shadows. Fortunately, we have been saved in many cases by the valiant efforts of local heroes who by themselves save us from the overreach of ... by Staff Writer

Dragnet

Recent Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids in Hampton Bays and Westhampton Beach lay bare the irrational immigration policies of the Trump administration. I wrote this one and a half years ago: “In February 2017, The Southampton Press’s Michael Wright reported on local businessmen and their reasons for employing immigrant laborers; his article was titled “East End Employers Say Immigrant Workers Pay Taxes, Provide Foundation for Local Economy.” In that article, local tradespeople expressed the belief that the new Trump administration would be judicious in their approach to immigration, that the new administration would deport only bad guys. On July ... by Staff Writer

Tribal Politics

The tribe has spoken. Following the national trend, Southampton Town Democrats enjoyed some big wins in Tuesday’s election. Tom Neely earned a Town Council seat by defeating incumbent Rick Martel, and Democratic Party candidates won all five Trustees seats, ousting three incumbents. Indeed, big wins for local Democrats. Voters stayed loyal to their brand — but is Southampton Town better off today? Time will tell. I primarily voted for the incumbents in our local election, as I’ve never subscribed to the idea of change for the sake of change. Southampton Town will be losing a lot of experience when Rick ... by Staff Writer
