Hi there,

The media can be the greatest force for peace on Earth. Instead, all too often, it’s wielded as a weapon of war. That's why we have to take the media back. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. With your contribution, we can continue to go to where the silence is, to bring you the voices of the silenced majority – those calling for peace in a time of war, demanding action on the climate catastrophe and advocating for racial and economic justice. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much!

PA Sen. John Fetterman Seeks Treatment for Depression 

HeadlineFeb 17, 2023

Senator John Fetterman is seeking in-patient treatment for depression at Walter Reed hospital, his office announced. Senate Democrats rallied around their colleague, with Majority Leader Chuck Schumer tweeting, “Happy to hear @SenFettermanPA is getting the help he needs and deserves. Millions of Americans, like John, struggle with depression each day.” The freshman senator from Pennsylvania has suffered a number of health challenges recently. Last week he was briefly hospitalized after feeling lightheaded during a Senate retreat. He was elected as U.S. senator in November, six months after suffering a life-threatening stroke.
