Editor and writer about politics and democracy reform. Transformational leader. Content creator. Board member. Strategic planner.
I'm excited to share that I will be joining OpenSecrets in January as director of communications and marketing, helping further the organization's mission to serve as the trusted authority on money in politics. Ever since my early days at Roll Call, I've had a deep appreciation for OpenSecrets (nee the Center for Responsive Politics) and now I'm looking forward to working with Hilary Braseth and the rest of the team. If you cover money in politics, let's catch up in January! This change means I'm saying goodbye to TheFulcrum.US, which has been a key part of my professional life since the end of 2018. I've loved getting The Fulcrum off the ground and helping to continue to expand its role as the center for news and commentary about political reform and bridge building. I look forward to seeing what the team does next.
David Meyers, excited to see you champion transparency in politics. your journey from roll call to opensecrets is truly inspiring. 🌟
Open Secrets is getting a true gem - and that's not a secret to anyone who knows you & what you can do!
Congratulations. Work is necessary, but when you can focus on doing good for the world, it is a rare pleasure not enough people ever get to enjoy. Best of luck!

Congratulations! I’m a huge fan of Open Secrets and have long thought that AllSides should link to and utilize their data more. Best of luck in your new adventure!
Kudos, David. Sounds like an excellent opportunity. Would love to learn more about the company and your role there.
