Since June, Payday has written over articles and produced 25 videos on the election. We've covered stories that most publications have ignored like the Boeing strike & how the Harris-Walz campaign has surged among union members in Western PA

We need to make several more articles and videos. We need your support to cover election results.
Donate today to help us cover the last few days of the campaign.
Payday has played a significant role in inspiring activists to keep fighting during these closing days of the campaign.
We know that union activists are texting and forwarding our stories widely among fellow activists, neighbors, and family. At a time when people are losing faith in social media companies and logging out of them, our readers are forwarding or texting our articles to people who trust them, and interpersonal trust matters in an age of disinformation.
In addition to our phenomenal forward rate, we have already begun to significantly impact national conversations. NPR's This American Life has asked me to serve as an editorial consultant for its coverage of unions in the 2024 election.
Revista Forum, the Brazilian equivalent of Newsweek, has also asked Payday to sign onto a partnership to provide coverage for them. Brazilian cameraman Fernando Calvacanti has even flown up from Brazil to help our coverage.
Revista Forum described Payday as being at the "epicenter" of the fight in Western Pennsylvania.
Fernando and I covered the assassination of Rio City Councilwoman Marielle Franco, a college classmate of mine, together in Rio de Janeiro. Now, we are fighting fascists in my native hills of Western Pennsylvania, where my family has been involved in the labor movement for generations.
We need your help, though, to have a significant impact. Payday Report has always held the corporate media accountable and forced them to up their game.
The Washington Post credited us in a front-page story for being the first labor media outlet to track the pandemic-era strike wave. Esquire called us "invaluable," The New York Times called us a publication with "new energy," and filmmaker Boots Riley has repeatedly cited us as one of his inspirations.
Our work with CNN on Western Pennsylvania was already nominated for an Emmy.
Now, we hope to have a huge impact in Western Pennsylvania because something big is happening that will impact the whole country, and we need your help to cover it.
