This Small Oregon Town Has Hospitals So Good They Rank Among the Best in America

Most people plan a trip around a beach, a trail, or a favorite coffee stop, not a hospital. Yet in one corner of Oregon, the medical care is part of the local story, and it sits right beside rivers, bridges, and a mountain view. Families here talk about doctors the way other towns talk about their high school team.

Longview Fire Levy Fails, Leaving City Few Options for Third Station

Longview voters have rejected Proposition 1, a Fire & EMS property-tax lid lift that would have funded a third fire station, a new engine and eight new emergency personnel, according to unofficial election returns reported by Lower Columbia Currents. The measure would have added $1.15 per $1,000 of assessed property valuation, raising Longview's property tax rate by about 58% in 2027 and generating roughly $6 million annually for the fire department.

Lawsuits, unpaid taxes plague company behind Columbia River refinery

A company proposing to build a nonconventional diesel refinery on the Columbia River is facing foreclosure, lawsuits and other major financial challenges across the country, according to research collected by Oregon nonprofits. The groups are calling on Gov. Tina Kotek to rescind her support of the project in light of the new information. A letter to the governor flagged Houston-based NEXT Renewable Fuels is no longer allowed to operate in Delaware because it owes nearly half a million dollars in back taxes to the state. Audrey Leonard, staff attorney for the environmental group Columbia Riverkeeper, said the problems do not stop there, adding the site of the proposed refinery in Oregon is under foreclosure because NEXT failed to make payments. "They failed to pay their business taxes and are being sued by investors and consultants that they've hired - all factors into the laundry list of reasons that this is a really bad idea for Oregon and for the community in Clatskanie," Leonard stressed. Leonard noted Kotek voiced her support for the project last year, citing the potential for jobs and added tax revenue. Neither NEXT nor the governor's office responded to a request for comment.

Rural election in Southwest WA drives big spending

On a wet Tuesday in Clark County, a campaign flyer landed in a mailbox between a feed store receipt and a school calendar. The paper was glossy, the claims were sharp, and the return address was not local. That small scene captures why the Southwest WA legislative race has become a test of how much national money can reshape a place that still thinks of itself as close to home.
