More than half of all counties in Oregon are facing budget shortfalls and cuts to programs and services. In Washington County, officials are proposing more than $25 million in reductions to the $2 billion budget that would include eliminating jobs and services. In Coos County, the sheriff’s department released some of those serving time in its jail last year. In 2024, county voters turned down two different tax levies to fund government services. Even after making cuts, Coos County still faces a gap of about $1.8 million. John Sweet is one of the three commissioners that govern Coos County. Kathryn Harrington is the chair of the Washington County Commission. They both join us to share more about the budget challenges and how they’re thinking about potential cuts to programs and services for their residents.
St. Johns County Commissioner Clay Murphy joins us in studio!

While state officials and legislators have positioned Texas to be “the bitcoin mining capital of the world,” in small towns like Granbury, working-class residents living next to giant, loud, environmentally destructive data centers are the ones paying the price for Texas's crypto boom. “None of us are sleeping,” Cheryl Shadden, a Granbury resident who lives across the street from a 300-megawatt bitcoin mining data center owned by Marathon Digital, tells TRNN. “We can't get rid of this alien invasion in our homes…This is like being a prisoner of war. It's like being tortured with loud sounds and bright lights and being sleep deprived.”In this episode of Working People, we dive deeper into the reality of living next to crypto mining data centers like the one in Granbury, the unseen threats they pose to human and nonhuman life, and what residents in Granbury are doing to fight back.

Sullivan County Manager Derek Ferland is here as we talk about how the snowmobile season was, Discover Sugar River Region, nursing home renovation, moving the County Commissioners offices to Unity, the political environment, and more.
On today's show, I'm sitting down with Democratic New Hanover County Commissioner Stephanie Walker to talk about her perspective on the county's budget negotiations — which are going on right now. Walker, who was recently elected to her first term as a commissioner in November after serving for four years on the county's school board, campaigned as a strong education advocate. So we asked her about education funding, but also other issues — including the proposed removal of the county's DEI program, and how The Endowment could step in with certain funding priorities.
On today's show, I'm sitting down with Democratic New Hanover County Commissioner Rob Zapple to talk about his priorities and perspectives on the county's ongoing budget process. We asked Zapple about what he thinks about efforts to make the county more financially efficient — as well as calls to do away with the county's DEI office, and have the Endowment step in to help with funding in some areas.
On today's show, I'm sitting down with Republican New Hanover County Commissioner LeAnn Pierce about her thoughts and goals as the county's budget negotiations move forward. We asked Pierce, vice-chair of the Board of Commissioners, about her thoughts on where the tax rate should go — and ways to make the county more efficient, including calls to eliminate DEI and have The Endowment step in to support some previously county-funded programs.
