Letter: Politics comes to the beach

St Augustine, FL
Dear Historic City News editor:
Recently, the St. Augustine beach City Commissioners voted themselves into the City healthcare system, saying it was discrimination if they were not allowed participation as City employees.
Historic City News reminds all St Augustine and St Johns County business owners that one of the most powerful ways that you can help honor veterans, is by hiring one. It’s a good diversity practice with benefits that go all around – to your business, the veterans you hire, and the community at large.
