NEW SITE….This is it: our new site is now up and running.  Hooray!  However, there are almost certainly still some bugs in the system, so please be patient for the next couple of days as we work out the kinks and improve the performance.  If you find a bug, or have any kind of complaint, email it to:

web-feedback@motherjones.com

A note on comments: in order to reduce comment spam, we’ve installed a captcha app that asks you to type in a word in order to verify that you’re actually a human being.  If you register a username, however, you don’t need to do this.  If you don’t want to register, you should feel free to comment regardless, but if you’re a regular it’s probably worth your while to register.

Welcome to the new site!

DECEMBER IS MAKE OR BREAK

A full one-third of our annual fundraising comes in this month alone. That’s risky, because a strong December means our newsroom is on the beat and reporting at full strength—but a weak one means budget cuts and hard choices ahead.

With only days left until December 31, we've raised about half of our $400,000 goal—but we need a huge surge in reader support to close the remaining gap. Whether you've given before or this is your first time, your contribution right now matters.

Managing an independent, nonprofit newsroom is staggeringly hard. There’s no cushion in our budget—no backup revenue, no corporate safety net. We can’t afford to fall short, and we can’t rely on corporations or deep-pocketed interests to fund the fierce, investigative journalism Mother Jones exists to do. That’s why we need you right now. Please chip in to help close the gap.
