JUST IN: ProPublica and @ctmirror.org's “On the Hook” series, which exposed how Connecticut laws had come to favor towing companies at the expense of low-income residents, has won the Pulitzer Prize for Local Reporting.
It’s ProPublica’s ninth Pulitzer Prize.
Mike Collins, a congressman from Georgia, wants to take away commercial driver’s licenses from noncitizens. Over the past 25 years, truckers for his businesses have been involved in crashes that killed five people and injured more than 50 people. www.propublica.org/article/mike...

AMAZING, AMAZING NEWS!! ProPublica and The Connecticut Mirror Win Pulitzer Prize for Local Reporting 🎉🎉🎉
ProPublica
I keep coming back to this number uncovered by @jeffernsthausen.bsky.social in this new @propublica.org investigation:
Trump has deported moms of U.S. citizens at four times the rate Biden did.
So what becomes of those U.S. citizen kids?
The award, for uncovering predatory state towing practices, marks ProPublica’s 9th Pulitzer; two additional investigations were named finalists.
NEW: For the first time, ProPublica has been able to quantify how many U.S. citizen children have been directly affected by Trump’s immigration crackdown: more than 11,000 kids had a parent detained — and that’s an undercount. 1/ 🧵

We got our hands on internal ICE records that show how widespread use of force, like punches, kicks, takedown maneuvers, restraint holds, and less-lethal weapons such as Tasers and pepper spray in detention centers has grown wapo.st/4tdgBRA (1/)
In letters to Experian and TransUnion, U.S. senators wrote that a “drastic drop in responsiveness means that American consumers may be getting denied a mortgage or housing simply due to an error on their report that your company failed to correct.” www.propublica.org/article/cred...
👋Hi! I’m Jessica Lussenhop, and for the last 4 years, I served as ProPublica’s first Minnesota-based reporter.
But now I’ve got big news: On May 14, ProPublica is launching a brand new podcast!
It’s called “Paper Trail,” and I’ll be your host. Thread 🧵
So proud of data reporters @sophiechou.bsky.social and @harucoryne.bsky.social, who are Pulitzer Prize winners today. They made sense of tens of thousands of scanned, hand written forms to uncover how the Connecticut DMV allows tow companies to sell people’s cars www.propublica.org/article/prop...
