Hi Folks,
I am a regular subscriber, plus I just kicked in another $30 (I wish it could be more) in the hopes that you make the goal you need to keep going.
I get deluged daily by our screwed up political system wanting money. However, as I am forced daily to go through and trash dozens of these requests, I never pass up at least looking at your news emails.
I deeply appreciate your work and if you have to become a subscriber-based email operation, count me in. But please, stay in business.
