Friends:

I’m thrilled to announce that today we have launched FLASHBACK, a new regular feature that will unearth lost history that remains relevant today. This new feature is available exclusively for supporting subscribers.

Our first edition — which you can find here — looks back on a moment in which President Obama was publicly pressed to fulfill his promise to support single-payer health care.

You can click here to become a supporting subscriber.

Becoming a $5-a-month or $50-a-year subscriber grants you access to this ongoing feature and other subscriber-only content. It also supports our efforts to expand our journalism. I hope you’ll consider becoming a subscriber.

Rock the boat,

Sirota
