Shelton: On Rep. Barney Frank’s criticism of progressives

By Letters to the Editor on May 6, 2026

I am sorry indeed to hear of Barney Frank’s impending demise. Our world will be poorer without him in it.

Still, to hear of his criticism of progressive Democrats and not an apology for the impotence of Dodd-Frank nor his subsequent taking of a job with a large bank, rankles this progressive (only a Democrat because I have to be) quite a bit.

Respectfully yours,
