Oregon Voters’ Pamphlets are here!

Please vote for Democrat, Andy Davis for our State House Representative, Oregon District 32!

I’ve met Andy, he is experienced, knowledgeable and understands the needs of North Oregon coastal residents. His work with the Oregon Health Authority, in city government, and in volunteer organizations means he knows the issues we care about, and why we care about them:

Affordable Housing
Good Jobs
Health Care for All
Legislating Rural Issues in Salem

Endorsed by the Oregon League of Conservation Voters, the Teamsters, Planned Parenthood, (and many other groups), Andy is the real deal.
Unlike his opponent who co-sponsored the punitive Anti-Abortion SB1536, Andy affirms that a woman and her doctor should make her healthcare decisions, no one else.

Please vote: Andy Davis, Oregon House District 32!

Rockfish And The Changing Ocean

ROCKFISH AND THE CHANGING OCEAN
Saturday, October 19th, 10 am – 12 pm

Join us for an enlightening event, “Rockfish and the Changing Ocean,” where we will dive into the fascinating world of rockfish and the evolving marine ecosystem off the Oregon coast.
The visiting scientist offering this presentation is Dr. Leif Rasmuson, the Marine Fishery Research Project Leader for Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife.
In 2021, Dr. Rasmuson and his team conducted a groundbreaking survey using acoustics and underwater video, spanning the entire Oregon coastline for the first time in state history. This innovative research not only helped prevent drastic cuts to rockfish fisheries but also shed light on critical issues like hypoxia in nearshore waters. This research will be continued with a follow-up survey in 2025.
Additionally, Dr. Rasmuson will present about various rockfish projects currently underway in Oregon’s oceans. We’ll discuss the intriguing movements of Yelloweye rockfish, the behaviors of Deacon rockfish, and the concerning lack of older female Black, Yellowtail, and Canary rockfish.
Whether you’re a marine enthusiast, a fisherman, or simply curious to learn more about our ocean’s health, this event promises to provide valuable insights into the resilience and challenges of Oregon’s rockfish populations. Join us for an engaging discussion and a chance to learn more about Oregon’s first statewide black rockfish survey, and how it contributed to the 2023 rockfish population estimate.

Who do you want to lead our country for the next 4 years?

Submitted By: babbles@nehalemtel.net – Click to email about this post
hi y’all in BBQ-land,

I received an email from Bre Maxwell, Rural Coalitions Director, DNC, with commentary and links to an interview with VP Kamala Harris on The View.

I have never watched The View because I don’t watch mainstream TV. I googled information and learned that it is “a venue for lively, informed debates on current events, especially politics.” Originated by Barbara Walters and currently led by longtime host, Whoopi Goldberg, five women with very different outlooks on politics, Hollywood and its stars, and current events discuss these and other divisive topics of the day.

In addition, The View also conducts interviews with prominent figures, such as celebrities and politicians. Thus, the interview with VP Kamala Harris.

I also learned that it’s viewed by more than 2,000,000 viewers. Wowza! That’s a lot of folks watching The View.

I have copied and pasted below an excerpt from that commentary sent to me.

This is part of the reason why I am voting for Kamala Harris to be the next President of the United States.

Respectfully submitted,

Om peace namaste

Lucy Brook
Nehalem resident

• The Vice President’s plans to lower care costs for millions of Americans stand in stark contrast to Trump and his Project 2025 agenda.
o As president, Trump tried to cut Medicare and Medicaid in every single one of his budgets, has called for raising the retirement age to 70, and said privatizing Medicare would create a “stronger system.”
o He denied millions of families the full child tax credit and tried to cut federal child care funding by nearly $100 million.
o His Project 2025 agenda will actually raise costs on families by $4,000 a year.

Unfortunately, the chart in the message i received won’t post on BBQ. You know, it’s the “wrong format.” Aargh! Technology!

So I have copied the two sides of the chart in the narrative below.

“Kamala Harris wants to expand Medicare to cover home care for seniors for the first time ever.
Donald Trump wants to make devastating cuts to Medicare.

Kamala Harris wants to cut average child care costs in half.
Donald Trump, when he was President, tried to cut funding for federal child care and youth services by nearly $100 million.

Kamala Harris wants to expand access to good child care options.
Donald Trump will raise costs on hardworking families by nearly $4,000 a year.”

Having read this, are you surprised that I’ll be voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz for President and Vice President of our country?

NEWS from the Nehalem Bay Health District

Hospital Road in Wheeler to be Closed October 14-17 Due to Construction

Alternative Routes Will be Available

Hospital Road in Wheeler will be closed from Monday, October 14 to Thursday October 17 due to construction related to the new Nehalem Bay Health Center and Pharmacy.

The road closure will impact traffic from 7:00 am until 5:30 pm, while construction crews undertake trenching across Hospital Road so that the new Health Center can tie into the city water main for facility water, as well as for the facility’s fire sprinkler system. A new fire hydrant will also be installed on Hospital Road.

Hospital Road will be open during non-construction hours.

Working with the city of Wheeler an alternative route with signage has been identified to allow access to the existing Nehalem Bay Health Center and Pharmacy (the former Rinehart Clinic), the Nehalem Valley Care Center and residential areas above the construction site.

The alternative route will direct traffic up Hall Street in Wheeler, allowing access to areas above and adjacent to Hospital Road.

We appreciate the community’s cooperation and hope to minimize inconvenience for those who normally use Hospital Road for access in the area.
