Bolts is a digital publication, launched in February 2022, that covers the nuts and bolts of power and political change.
We focus our work on two areas where local governments play an outsized role: criminal justice and voting rights. We tell stories about local elections and obscure institutions, and the movements brewing around them, that highlight real world stakes and conflicts. We report on the places, people, and politics that shape public policy around policing and incarceration, and access to democracy but are dangerously overlooked. We also publish resources and guides that make it easier to follow local politics nationwide. (All articles we’ve published are available here.)
We are now hiring a new staff writer to join our team of editors and other writers.
The staff writer will report and write clear, incisive, and engaging stories that enrich and grow Bolts’ coverage.
