Hi Reader,

At the heart of ProPublica’s mission is the steadfast faith in the power of investigative reporting to spur change and right wrongs. And it does. Our stories have prompted:

A national conversation about ethics <[link removed]> in the Supreme Court (as well as the adoption of new code of conduct <[link removed]> for the justices, a first in history).

A $100 million fund <[link removed]> for patients of a predatory OB-GYN at Columbia University’s medical center.

The Federal Trade Commission to order the maker of TurboTax to cease “deceptive” advertising <[link removed]>, after an investigation following ProPublica’s long-running series on for-profit tax preparation companies.

A new Environmental Protection Agency rule that will slash cancer-causing emissions by sterilization facilities <[link removed]>, after a 2021 investigation by ProPublica and The Texas Tribune revealed the EPA’s yearslong failure to inform communities of the risks they faced from cancer-causing ethylene oxide emissions.

And so much more <[link removed]> (which you can see in our impact reports, published three times a year).

Our work is funded by a community of people who believe that an independent press is critical to democracy. <[link removed]>We’re wrapping up the first half of our two-week member drive, and I’m grateful for the overwhelming support we’ve seen so far. Over 2,000 donors have stepped up and donated this week, giving $5 a month, $50, even $1,000. This member drive, we’re looking to strengthen the power of this community by welcoming 4,000 new and renewing members, and your participation will help us get there.

With every new donation we receive, ProPublica grows stronger and gets better. Help us continue to shine a light on corruption and injustice in our government, corporations and more. Join us right now so we can continue this critically important work. <[link removed]>

Thanks so much,

Jill Shepherd
