Last night, my wife figured I’d be home early.

Through the south-facing office window, the sky looked dull. An approaching storm had walled off the scenery, and she suspected my sunset chase would end with little to show for it. She kept expecting me to pull into the driveway.

Meanwhile, on the west side of Sierra Vista, I was looking northwest at this.

I would be a while longer.

From where she stood, her conclusion made sense. The window gave her every reason to believe the color had been swallowed by the storm. But there was more sky than that window could show her.

That thought echoed this morning as I wondered about today's words across your screens.

How often do we judge the possibilities ahead through the one view we’ve grown accustomed to? Our routines, our experiences, even our disappointments can frame the world so tightly that we forget how much lies beyond the edges.

A change in perspective takes a little effort. Sometimes it means stepping outside, listening to someone whose experience differs from ours, or giving an unfamiliar direction a chance.

There’s no guarantee every turn will reveal something worth chasing. Some views will be as gray as we expected. But we can leave ourselves room to be surprised. We might find something we hadn’t thought to look for—something that gives us a reason to take the next step.

As this Monday begins, give yourself permission to look beyond the familiar window. There may be a possibility you haven’t considered, a path you’ve overlooked, or a little color waiting just outside your view.

Keep looking.

BRANDON MARTIN ANNOUNCES PRIVATELY FUNDED MEDICAL DEBT RELIEF INITIATIVE FOR SIERRA VISTA

Brandon Martin, candidate for Mayor of Sierra Vista, has released a proposal for a privately funded initiative aimed at eliminating qualifying medical debt for local households.

The following press release was provided by Brandon Martin for Mayor and is published in full:

“Brandon Martin Announces Sierra Vista Medical Debt Relief Initiative — Private Donations to Erase Millions in Local Medical Debt

Sierra Vista, AZ — October 16, 2026 — Brandon Martin, candidate for Mayor of Sierra Vista, today announced a private, community-funded initiative to erase medical debt for Sierra Vista households earning at or below the median income, with ten thousand dollars already committed by local individuals and businesses in the past two days.

The Sierra Vista Medical Debt Relief Initiative will partner with Undue Medical Debt, the national nonprofit that has abolished more than forty-nine billion dollars in medical debt for over thirty-one million Americans. Undue purchases bundled medical debt from hospitals and collection agencies for pennies on the dollar and cancels it outright — meaning every donated dollar erases roughly one hundred dollars of debt. Recipients are notified by mail. There is no application process, no strings attached, and no tax liability.

“Arizona already showed the country this works,” Martin said. “In 2024 Arizona’s partnership with Undue erased more than one billion dollars for nearly 671,000 Arizonans using zero state tax dollars. We’re doing the same thing here in Sierra Vista — with private hands and a community that shows up.”

The initiative uses a tiered structure. Households below 200 percent of the federal poverty line receive full erasure of all medical debt. Households between 200 and 400 percent of poverty receive full erasure of any medical debt equal to five percent or more of annual income. And working families above that line but still crushed by a single catastrophic bill receive erasure of the portion above the five-percent threshold.

Martin emphasized that the city will not fund the effort. “My role as mayor would be convener, not checkbook,” he said. “We host the table, make the introductions, and get out of the way. No city funds. No new taxes.”

A key partner is Canyon Vista Medical Center, which reported over twelve million dollars in charity care and uncompensated care last year. Martin is asking the hospital to donate debt portfolios directly, which Undue says stretches donor dollars eight to ten times further than cash purchases.

All donations are fully tax-deductible. Donors and businesses will be recognized at a community event, on a permanent donor wall, and across campaign materials.

“Sierra Vista was built on self-reliance and the people who serve at Fort Huachuca,” Martin said. “Medical debt punishes exactly those families for getting sick. This isn’t about growing government. It’s about growing community.”
