Public-interest reporting on local businesses and their political actions—who’s funding what, and why it matters.
Who’s funding what, and why it matters.
This page is a growing hub for public-interest reporting on local businesses, developers, and donors—especially when their money intersects with politics.
We’re tracking which businesses are using their influence to shape Mansfield’s future… for better or worse. Not all dollars are equal, and residents deserve to know when private agendas are guiding public outcomes.
What This Page Will Include
- Campaign finance breakdowns of local donors and PACs
- Business connections to city contracts, zoning decisions, and insider deals
- Patterns of influence in school board elections and city leadership
- Public recognition of ethical businesses supporting education, equity, and transparency
- Spotlight articles on businesses using power to punish, intimidate, or silence others
We are not here to cancel anyone. We are here to inform residents and create space for accountability. If a business or donor chooses to influence our democracy, we believe that choice should be visible to the people affected by it.
