RSN: How the Supreme Court Might End Nationwide Legal Abortion

RSN at the Limit

We have reached the limit of what we can do with the funding we have on hand. In fairness, it should never have gotten this far.

Like it or not, we have to hold out for cash. The point is that if we are successful, you will still have an RSN to come to.

For real.

I HAVE TO FIND SOME WAY TO GET YOU DONATING — That’s my job. With your contributions we can pay salaries, contractors, vendors and grow RSN. Without them we cannot. The few donations we need are well within the capacity of this readership. It falls to me to do this. I need volunteers.
