EXCLUSIVE: A new analysis by The Xylom's @alexip718.com shows for the first time just how much America’s top research institutions have grown to depend on H-1B skilled workers — and how this delicate balance might be disrupted by U.S. President Donald Trump’s crackdown on legal immigration.

Reupping results from a recent @inn.org member survey:

• 60% are facing revenue declines
• 57% are seeking emergency funding
•36% report < 3 months of operating reserves

While authoritarian consolidation of corporate media continues unimpeded, nonprofit media is on the brink of collapse!
INBOX: I spoke to @inn.org about the existential crisis facing tiny nonprofit newsrooms like @thexylom.com.

In J-school, I learned how to be a good and ethical reporter, a flexible freelancer, and a strong relationship builder. But how does that translate to keeping the jobs of my colleagues?

The past year underscored the urgency of @fi2w.org's work. As immigrants in the U.S. face escalating political attacks and disinformation campaigns, the news industry itself is undergoing profound change.
At Fi2W, we measure our success not by the quantity of stories we publish, but by the way we amplify immigrant voices, deepen community-centered storytelling, and prepare journalists to lead in an increasingly hostile and uncertain media environment.

Read how we're doing in our 2025 Impact Report.

Anyway please apply to our @fi2w.org reporting fellowship.

We're especially interested in an inclusive understanding of economy. Beyond stock and inflation numbers, what are the specific ways we distribute goods and services — formally and informally — for the needs of our communities? How do immigrants provide those for themselves and others in the US?
