Weekend Listen: 4th graders in Tukwilia celebrate the end of school after a difficult year for immigrant students, 5 years after a deadly heat dome in the Northwest people prepare for increasingly hot summers, and Thousands in Oregon have turned old cars and trash collection into an annual game called the Gambler 500
Today, we’re bringing you the best from the KUOW newsroom. In Tukwila, a class of fourth graders ended the school year with a big, public art show full of mixed emotions. The school is a hub for new immigrant students, and the artwork celebrates some of their journeys. As KUOW’s Gustavo Sagrero reports, the show came at the end of a tough year, as immigration enforcement took a toll on this classroom. It’s been five years since a record-shattering heat wave hit the Northwest, killing an estimated twelve-hundred people. As the world’s climate keeps warming, we can expect more heat—and more deaths. John Ryan looks at efforts to make our next heat wave less deadly. Road trash cleanup often involves people along a highway in orange vests with those little grabbers and plastic bags. But in Oregon, there’s an annual trash pickup event that’s more like a party. Thousands of people come together to drive hundreds of miles of forest service roads picking up trash by day and camping out with live music and fun at night. Matt Martin was there last weekend.

Another victory for voting justice, just in time for July Fourth: Jim Walsh’s IP26-500 voter elimination scheme fails to qualify
Walsh's initiative sought to force Washington's thirty-nine counties to carry out a mass purge of the voter rolls before the 2027 general election. Despite using party resources for promotion, Walsh couldn't gather enough signatures by the July 2nd due date. He was left to watch as Brian Heywood submitted signatures for a measure to overturn the million-dollar earners tax while his own measure died.

As everything gets more expensive, is Costco the secret to savings?
Today we're bringing you an episode from our friends at KUOW's data podcast Control F. We’re heading into a long holiday weekend. If you’re taking a road trip, you’ll need to fill up the gas tank, maybe even get some new tires. For a longer journey, a rental car can be helpful. Don’t forget to pick up toiletries and refill your prescriptions. If you’re in town hosting grab some extra lawn chairs for the guests. You can get all of this at Costco – along with your groceries. Conventional wisdom is that Costco is a good deal. But grocery prices are up. Grocery inflation is up 27 percent in the last 5 years following pandemic supply chain disruptions and international turmoil. So, will shopping at our local bulk retailer Costco save you some money this holiday? We can only make Seattle Now because listeners support us.

Highway 99 was built through Seattle’s South Park neighborhood in the late 1950s, as a way to support the city’s burgeoning industrial sector. Now, nearly 70 years later, the city has worked with community advocates to make a change, which could even include removing the highway from South Park altogether.

Sense narrowly prevails at SCOTUS as Roberts, Barrett, and the liberals uphold birthright citizenship over right wing dissents
On June 30th, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld birthright citizenship under the Fourteenth Amendment in a split decision, affirming that children born in the U.S. are citizens, whether or not their parents have citizenship or not. The ruling hopefully has the effect of ending Donald Trump's attempts to overturn this sacred constitutional guarantee.

Seattle has a law to protect trees. Advocates say it's doing the opposite
Despite the city's stated goal to increase tree canopy, Seattle’s urban forest is actually shrinking. Advocates for tree preservation say laws against illegal tree cutting on private property are not being enforced, or even investigated property. We talk with KUOW’s Stephen Howie about his deep dive into how Seattle's tree ordinance is playing out. We can only make Seattle Now because listeners support us.
