After a three-year hiatus, Tempe St. Luke’s Hospital will reopen its labor and delivery department Monday morning, with an emphasis on its nurse midwife service.

Luke may be a tripod cat, but that doesn’t stop him from chasing toy mice, batting wands or leaping from one level of his kitty condo to another. The folks at AZ RESCUE say it’s like someone forgot to tell this energetic 2-year-old that he’s missing a front leg.

Thousands of West Valley families and war veterans gathered this weekend at Luke Air Force Base to catch a glimpse of fighter jets and other large military aircraft in an up-close and personal manner. This year’s Luke Days marked the military installation’s 70th anniversary — the air shows have been taking place since the 1950s — celebrating the world’s largest training base for F-16 pilots that soon could be home to the F-35.

An economic engine that provides thousands of jobs and pumps an estimated $2.2 billion into Maricopa County's economy is at risk. You would think every politician in the county would jump to protect such an asset, but unfortunately the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors continues to defy both law and logic to put the future of Luke Air Force Base in danger. We need county supervisors who will protect the Air Force base that protects our national security.

Tempe St. Luke's Hospital offers community health and SeniorAdvantage seminars designed to promote healthy living. These seminars, presented by physicians on the medical staff and health care professionals, give members of the community resources and knowledge to help them be proactive about their health.

St. Luke’s Medical Center recently held a ribbon-cutting ceremony for The Grossman Burn Center on its Phoenix campus.

The politics surrounding development around Luke Air Force Base and its auxiliary fields has unfairly created the misconception that Maricopa County has been somehow negligent or shortsighted.

Since its establishment in 1941, Luke Air Force Base has played a vital role in our nation’s security and in Arizona’s economy. I filed a lawsuit last week against Maricopa County to make sure its future is not jeopardized by the county’s failure to follow state law.
