“This is a huge victory for journalism and the truth on an issue of immense public importance.” ProPublica and Houston Chronicle prevail in a 6-year defamation battle.

NEW: Last session Carl Tepper authored a new law mandating local jurisdictions post campaign finance records online.

Jessica Priest & I examined 35 school districts.

None had all of the required reports online.

Many candidates never turned them in. A few districts lost them.

As a result of the posting failures, voters did not have easy access to filings that showed at least 2 school board candidates with massive campaign hauls of more than $30k each. Hopefully this article leads to all school districts putting their campaign finance reports online!

New: The U.S. Army will no longer allow military commanders to decide on their own whether soldiers accused of certain serious crimes can leave the service rather than go on trial. bit.ly/4aLtEkL

ICYMI: A nationwide analysis by ProPublica Texas Tribune shows states require far more training to prepare students and teachers for a #massshooting than they do for the police who are expected to protect them. via lomikriel & Lexi Churchill propublica.org/article/uvalde…
