The Markup CEO Nabiha Syed’s announcement:

I’m so thrilled to announce that CalMatters is acquiring The Markup in its entirety. The whole world is looking at California for both the innovation that comes out of Silicon Valley and the tech regulation that comes out of Sacramento. Bringing our data-driven approach to the deep CalMatters beats – education, health, housing, AI – is going to create change in California, the country, and the world.
