Trump Administration Opens Endangered Species’ Habitats To Development, Reversing 50 Years Of Environmental Law
The Trump administration has reversed decades of environmental law protecting endangered species, opening sensitive habitats to drilling, mining, farming, and real estate development. This significant policy shift, finalized by the Interior and Commerce Departments, redefines 'harm' under the 1973 Endangered Species Act, a definition previously upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court in 1995. While the administration claims the move 'returns the interpretation of the ESA back to its actual text and original intent,' environmental organizations have condemned the action, vowing immediate legal challenges and emphasizing that habitat loss remains the primary cause of extinction.

Are You Paying Rental Junk Fees? Plus, Expanded Transit and Time Capsules
Today on City Cast Seattle, Jane C. Hu is joined by regular contributors Hannah Krieg and Ryan Packer to discuss the news that Mayor Katie Wilson is targeting rental junk fees and what a renter should pay and what they shouldn’t. Then they talk about another of the Mayor’s plans: an increase on sales tax towards transit measures, which would up the 2020 figure of .15% to .3%, raising $138 million a year for transit. The trio discuss what kind of advantages expanded service could offer, especially late nights and weekends. Finally, in honor of the country’s 250th birthday, Jane tells Ryan and Hannah what items Washington lawmakers put into the Semiquincentennial time capsule, which won’t be opened until 2276. Suffice it to say, Ryan and Hannah have opinions. Learn more about the sponsors of this July 14th episode: Seattle Theatre Group pFriem Beer Grand Central Bakery Want to get in touch?
