The Editor:

I’m a Renton resident who has visited Point Roberts on many occasions in the distant past, with many fond memories of this unique enclave of Washington state.

Today I contacted my U.S. Congress member, Adam Smith, on behalf of Point Roberts residents and property owners. I expressed my concern about the ongoing saga of Covid-related border restrictions facing your community. I cannot begin to comprehend the suffering experienced by the Point Roberts community, but I have been staying informed of events and, quite literally, praying on behalf of your community.

I regard those of you who live in, or own property in, Point Roberts as Washingtonians. It is my fervent hope that the Canadian Border Services Agency and Department of Homeland Security will be authorized to specifically create reasonable access for Point Roberts residents and property owners, as promptly as possible.

Ronald L. Bensley, Jr.
