The world needs progressive, people-powered media now more than ever.
And yet, there's never been a more difficult time for independent
journalism to survive.

Friend,
The percentage of the world's population living in a democracy has
declined by nearly a third over the last decade.
Atmospheric carbon dioxide levels have crossed 421 parts per million,
the highest in recorded human history.
And the world is closer to a nuclear conflict than at any point since
the Cuban Missile Crisis.
Society needs progressive, non-corporate journalism now more than ever.
And yet, in this dark and dangerous moment in history, it's never been
more difficult for independent journalism to survive.
Corporate tech giants like Google, Facebook, and Amazon control an
enormous share of the traffic on the internet, and those corporations
have every incentive to steer people away from nonprofit news
organizations like Common Dreams, throttling access to our coverage and
undermining our ability to reach readers, which devastates our
fundraising.
These are the challenges we face as we launch our Fall Campaign.
Between now and the end of this campaign, we must raise at least $75,000
in order to keep our news operations going. That's not a "it would be
nice" goal. That's not money we hope to raise, but we could live
without. That's the money that we need to cover our basic operating
expenses through the upcoming midterms and the key weeks to follow.
If you value the progressive, nonprofit journalism of Common Dreams,
please help get our Fall Campaign off to a strong start by making a
donation today.
