LETTER: Rents, gasoline and food are all rising quickly in Las Vegas

There is no relief in sight for renters. For gasoline prices, we are No. 2 or No. 3 in the nation. When the higher fuel costs hit our groceries, they will obliterate some family budgets.

I would hope Democratic politicians would attack this issue, but not much has happened. Seems to me it’s time to elect leaders and vote out our current politicians.
