Dear lovely readers,For almost three years you have read my reporting in the Albany Democrat-Herald and Corvallis Gazette-Times. This will be one of the last pieces you read in your local paper with my byline. I hope you enjoyed our time together as much as I did. I think when I look back on my years at the Democrat-Herald it will be like remembering a first love. For a very long time, I wanted to be a writer, then to be a journalist.

Boshart Davis, who owns Boshart trucking based in Linn County, is a chief sponsor of the bill, which would pause the clean truck rules until 2027.
