Notable Quotes (3)
Cottage Grove is a welcoming place and I have always felt safe here. So, I was surprised to learn that our hero center is leased to ICE.
Since 2020, they have gotten $749,000 from ICE.
We’re having to increase the amount of money that we’re spending for these two dump trucks by a total of $6,000... because of the tariffs.
