Rewire.News is an award-winning, nonprofit daily online publication devoted to evidence-based reporting on reproductive and sexual health, rights, and justice, and the intersections of racial, environmental, immigration, and economic justice.
We publish news, analysis, and investigative reporting created by professional journalists, editors, and multimedia experts. We also offer vigorous commentary, debate, and opinion rooted in fact and considered thinking.
Our work is intended to fulfill the core role of journalism in a democratic society by fostering public knowledge and dispelling misinformation on issues more commonly shrouded in misinformation and ideology.
Our goals are to:
- proactively inform our large, growing, and politically active readership, including other journalists and media pundits, policymakers, researchers, advocates, lawyers, medical professionals, and interested publics;
- challenge false, misleading, and stigmatizing reporting by other media outlets and correct the record when others fail to report the facts;
- counter falsehoods and misinformation spread by those who seek political gain from undermining public health and human rights, irrespective of political party or belief;
- add to the body of knowledge and informed public debate by covering unreported and underreported issues.
We rely on evidence for all our reporting and positions, eschew false equivalencies, believe in the separation of church and state, are unafraid to call out flaws in conventional wisdom, and do not pledge allegiance to any political party.

Anti choice is more than welcome to vote for a Democrat that will 100% protect pro choice.
