Hi there,

The job of a journalist is to go to where the silence is — especially when those in power seek to silence voices that question or challenge power. That is what we do at Democracy Now! day in and day out, and we're able to do it because of financial support from people like you — people who trust and depend on our independent reporting. If you believe that freedom of speech and freedom of the press are essential to the functioning of a democratic society, please donate today. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Democracy Now!

Chase Bank to Pay $290 Million to Settle Class-Action Suit Brought by Epstein Survivors

HeadlineJun 13, 2023

JPMorgan Chase has agreed to pay $290 million to settle a lawsuit brought by survivors of convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein who say the bank ignored warnings about Epstein’s abuses for years because he was bringing in wealthy clients. JPMorgan Chase still faces a separate lawsuit brought by the U.S. Virgin Islands, where the Attorney General’s Office said in a statement it will proceed with its enforcement action to “prevent the bank from assisting and profiting from human trafficking in the future.”
