The Wisconsin Center for Investigative Reporting’s partner, News 414, is trying Public Input to talk to readers and help them find resources for housing, food pantries or even speak directly to a reporter.
When a reader texts “MKE” to 73224, an automatic response is generated with several options. Option one gives you information on housing, food, jobs and civic engagement. The second gives you free COVID information. Option three gives you the ability to speak directly to a reporter, and four lets you text and read the information in Spanish.
