To the editor:

Rep. Matheson was chosen for the award based on the following: He did not vote to raise taxes last year -- instead, he voted to make repeal of the death tax permanent. He voted for medical liability reform, bankruptcy reform, class action reform, a sound national energy policy, "healthy forests" to begin clearing fuel from national forests, health plans to reduce small-business health insurance costs and two free-trade agreements to open markets to American goods and services. These votes were important to businesses in Utah and across the country."

"The bottom section of the lake contains so much salt it's like syrup," said Mormile."
