Hi there,

It is the job of the press to cover power, not cover for power—to hold those in power accountable by documenting what's happening on the ground and amplifying voices at the grassroots. In this critical moment, as attacks on the media escalate, we must continue to cover crackdowns on dissent, immigrants, the LGBTQ+ community, public health and academic freedom. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. If our journalism is important to you, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Harris Campaign Reports Record Fundraising Haul, Outraising Trump 3 to 1 in September

HeadlineOct 24, 2024

Kamala Harris’s campaign and allied groups raised $378 million in September, helping to break the record for the largest quarterly campaign fundraising haul in U.S. history, according to new Federal Election Commission data. Major Harris donors include Facebook co-founder Dustin Moskovitz, Illinois’s billionaire Democratic Governor J.B. Pritzker and cryptocurrency billionaire Chris Larsen. The New York Times reports billionaire Microsoft founder Bill Gates recently donated about $50 million to a nonprofit backing Harris.

Donald Trump’s campaign reports it raised $160 million in September. That includes over $14 million from a handful of oil and gas industry executives, coming after Trump told fossil fuel companies he would roll back environmental protections in exchange for $1 billion in campaign contributions.
