WHY I DONATED:
This month, it came down to a choice of canceling the monthly subscription to
the local tree-killer they call a newspaper around here and donating to your
organization. I guess you can see which choice I made. If I want to see the
local politicians lie themselves blue-in-the-face, I'll turn on the noise box.
If I want to read informed views and objective opinions, I'll go to Reader
Supported News. Thank you, Kelly F., RSN Reader-Supporter

About Rape
Jessica Valenti, Guardian UK
Valenti writes: "During a time when sexual assault and the difficulty of reporting it is a central part of the national conversation, forcing women and girls to go to the police before they can access abortion makes Republicans seem even more out of touch with the issues women face than usual."
