About The Center Square
The Center Square was launched in 2019 to fulfill the need for high-quality statehouse and statewide news across the United States.
The focus of our work is federal, state and local government accountability and economic reporting. A taxpayer sensibility distinguishes our work from other coverage of federal, state and local issues. As a result of this approach, our readers are better informed about the focus of government and its cost to the citizens whose tax dollars fund governmental decisions.
The Center Square is staffed by editors and reporters with extensive professional journalism experience. We engage readers with essential news, data and analysis – delivered with velocity, frequency and consistency.
We distribute our journalism through three main channels at no cost to our partners or readers: a newswire service to legacy publishers and broadcasters, TheCenterSquare.com and syndicated platforms, and social media.
