Hi there,

Right now, less than 1% of people who count on Democracy Now! for trustworthy news support our work financially. If just 1% of our global audience made a donation of any amount, it would cover our costs for 2026. For the last time this year, a group of generous donors will TRIPLE MATCH all donations made today, which means your $15 gift is worth $45. Please donate today, so we can keep bringing you the stories you won’t find anywhere else. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much!
