Special holiday offer for PN subscribers

Dear readers,

Earlier this month we published the 1,000th edition of Public Notice. Getting there has been an incredibly gratifying journey. Since launching more than four years ago, this newsletter has grown from scratch to over 270,000 subscribers and into one of the top political publications on Substack. I now work with a fantastic team of contributors and am very proud of the quality our coverage day in and day out.

None of that is possible without readers like you, so thank you.

I’m emailing today in hopes you can help PN become even bigger and better next year. In order to ensure as many people as possible can enjoy our coverage, I have kept almost everything we’ve published totally free. But as a result, over 95 percent of our subscribers pay nothing for the newsletter. I’m grateful for every reader, but it’s important to our long-term sustainability that more free subscribers convert to paid. So I’m coming to you with a special offer in hopes you can do your part.

I’m offering the special holiday discount of 20 percent off for annual subscriptions. Click the button below to get the newsletter right in your inbox all the way through the 2026 midterms every morning for just $40.

Paid subscriptions come with a range of perks, including full access to everything we publish, Q&As with me, commenting privileges, and more. But most importantly they keep the newsletter thriving and allow me to keep it almost entirely free for everyone.

In 2025, we published widely read and critically acclaimed coverage of the Supreme Court’s deal with the devil, the national rise of leading Democratic leaders like Gavin Newsom, Q&As with leading thinkers including Paul Krugman and Adam Serwer, in depth features about Trump’s slipping hold on the GOP, explained tariffs, and much more. I rolled out a new weekly live show with David Nir in which we discuss the big stories of the week and take live questions from subscribers. And my fantastic team of regular contributors now includes Paul Waldman, formerly of the Washington Post, who is one of the best in the business at writing policy explainers.

With an extremely high-stakes midterm election cycle on the horizon, 2026 promises to be a momentous year for political news. Please consider supporting us as we continue to expand the Public Notice team and work tirelessly day in and day out to make sense of it all for you.

Thanks again for being a reader. Covering US politics these days isn’t easy, but I’m grateful to be able to do it for a living and blessed to have such a fantastic and thoughtful audience. I’m extremely appreciative of your support. Have a great holiday season.

Cheers,

Aaron
