    " Hey Yellow media watch re-read the request for the MN family. It says to contact the HOUSTON COUNTY WOMENS RESOURCES. Last I knew Houston County was in MN. "

    " Just to bring up a point.
    This is a great program. But:
    This program is a LaCrosse County program, why are our tax dollars subsidizing and supporting those in Minnesota?
    Many of these people live in MN to avoid the taxation that provides services here.
    Why are they being "rewarded" for this?
    Lacrescent should start their own program and thank their lucky stars that we are here for their benefit. "
