Dear Reader, 

So many aspects of our lives have become uncertain and the “new normal” seems to change by the hour. But one thing that is clearer than ever is the value of good, trustworthy journalism, rooted in fact and without axes to grind. ProPublica’s journalists are working harder than ever, shining a light on stories that aren’t being told elsewhere: 

• A Medical Worker Describes Terrifying Lung Failure From COVID-19 — Even in His Young Patients
• Doctors Are Hoarding Unproven Coronavirus Medicine by Writing Prescriptions for Themselves and Their Families
• “Essential” Factory Workers Are Afraid to Go to Work and Can’t Afford to Stay Home
• Senator Dumped Up to $1.7 Million of Stock After Reassuring Public About Coronavirus Preparedness

Most of ProPublica’s reporters and editors, all now scattered to homes all over the country, have been redirected onto the coronavirus beat these last few weeks. We know that receiving insightful, accurate information about this crisis is urgent — for the health of you and your family, and for leaders seeking to make informed decisions that will help us all. 

I hope you’ll consider making a donation to ProPublica today, if you’re in a position to do so. Right now, our resources are going toward covering this crisis, and your gift will support our work going forward. 

Please donate today to help us remain on strong financial footing, so that we continue the critical and urgent coverage that we all need— and America deserves— in times like these.

Thanks so much,
Jill Shepherd
