Thanks for reading through to the end…
We share your inclination to get the whole story. For the past 25 years, Xpress has been committed to in-depth, balanced reporting about the greater Asheville area. We want everyone to have access to our stories. That’s a big part of why we've never charged for the paper or put up a paywall.
We’re pretty sure that you know journalism faces big challenges these days. Advertising no longer pays the whole cost. Media outlets around the country are asking their readers to chip in. Xpress needs help, too. We hope you’ll consider signing up to be a member of Xpress. For as little as $5 a month — the cost of a craft beer or kombucha — you can help keep local journalism strong. It only takes a moment.
Way to go Carl M. Your stand on immigration laws should guarantee you to be our next congressman!
Thanks for standing for the working men and women who have to fight for a chance just to get a job around here.You have my vote !!!!!
I sure Raleigh does the right thing for a change and stops these hostile annexations. It’s plain unAmerican.
