A Year In, Trump’s Spending Cuts Hit Hardest In Black Communities
The One Big Beautiful Bill Act, signed into law last July, has significantly curtailed access to healthcare and food assistance for millions of low-income Americans, with Black communities disproportionately affected. The legislation, which enacted trillions in cuts to Medicaid and food assistance budgets, has led to a 4.6 million decrease in Medicaid and CHIP enrollment and over 4 million fewer SNAP participants, intensifying existing systemic inequities.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett Will Be Missed
U.S. Representative Jasmine Crockett, a civil rights attorney, has emerged as a vocal advocate for the rights of Black Americans, notably challenging legislative efforts by Representative Byron Donalds. Donalds has championed the D.C. Crimes Act of 2025, a measure designed to impose stricter penalties on juvenile offenders in the nation's capital, which Crockett argues denies young people the same opportunities for redemption he once received, citing his own past felony charge and subsequent expungement.

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.
