Decisions are difficult, and sometimes damaging, if voters don’t have reliable information.
This fall Long Beach voters will determine whether property owners, power plants and shoppers should pay more taxes to fund an array of services and projects. The Long Beach Post is here to help you sort through the spin.
We are teaming up with our friends at KLBP radio station and Cal State Long Beach to host a team of student interns this fall who will produce stories, videos, radio spots and more to explain these ballot measures and introduce you to the candidates seeking office. (Read more about this new partnership here.)
This coverage is free and open to all — even to those who can’t afford to pay for it.
Today I have a special ask:
The Post is seeking to raise $25,000 during the city’s largest fundraising effort, Long Beach Gives, which begins today and ends in one week: Sept. 19, 2024.
Your gift will help strengthen democracy, and empower the next generation of journalists.
Thank you so much for your generosity; we can’t do this without you, our readers.
Sincerely,
Melissa Evans, CEO
