Student debt strikers with the Debt Collective converged on Washington this week to pressure the Department of Education to grant them relief after being defrauded by higher education profiteers.

Producing ethical, independent news means we can confront the challenges this country is facing, without any government or corporate influence over what we do or do not publish. But this comes at a cost: We must raise $42K in our October fundraiser to continue this work.

Can you take a second to chip in?
