Jared Hohlt

Natalie Matthews-Ramo Starting today, Slate is trying something new. We will be asking our most loyal readers—those of you who visit the site the most—to help keep making our work possible by joining our membership program, Slate Plus. Slate Plus is not new. It launched six years ago, and it has become a very important part of how we sustain our business—and how we think about our relationship to readers and listeners.

Leave a question or suggestion for editor-in-chief Jared Hohlt. Natalie Matthews-Ramo As we move ever closer to November 2020 (gulp), we wanted to take a moment to hear from the Slate Plus members who help make all our coverage possible. How would you like to see Slate tackle the presidential election? What stories are we missing? What sort of coverage would you like to see more of? And how should we advance our investigations into Who Counts?
