Hi there,

In this chaotic news cycle it may be tempting to tune out, but we hope you won’t—only an informed and engaged public can defend democracy. In these times of deep political polarization we need news that goes beyond play-by-play headlines, news that goes to the heart of each story by asking people to tell their own stories of abuses of power and injustice in their own words. If our journalism is important to you, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Report: Cynthia McKinney To Run For Congress Again

HeadlineJan 13, 2004

The Atlanta Journal Constitution is reporting that former Georgia Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney is planning to run for her old seat in November against the woman who beat her two years ago, Democrat Denise Majette. The newspaper said McKinney’s father confirmed her intentions on Sunday. The announcement came a day after Cynthia McKinney issued a statement turning down an invitation from the Green Party to run on its ticket for president. During her last term in Congress McKinney was one of the most vocal critics of the Bush administration, the so-called war on terror and U.S. support for Israel.
