Hi Reader,

As we wrap up 2023, time is running out to make your year-end donation in support of independent journalism that shines a light on corruption and holds people in power to account.

Much of our funding comes from our readers — people who know the value of fact-based, well-researched reporting that demands transparency from the most powerful people and institutions in our country.

So far this year, more than 50,000 ProPublicans have stepped up and made a donation, giving us the critical funding we need to pursue investigations into our elected leaders, the judiciary, immigration, education and so much more. We are so grateful to each and every one of those people who power our reporting, and I hope that you’ll join us by tonight.

With only hours left before 2023 is over, I hope we can count on you to stand up for the power of journalism that can right wrongs and create real-world impact.

Happy New Year,

Jill Shepherd
Proud ProPublican
