Consumer Reports
U.S. center-left
Consumer Reports is an independent nonprofit best known for rigorous, ad-free product testing, but it also runs an advocacy arm that pushes for consumer protection, financial regulation, digital privacy, and environmental standards. Its grant funders and recent leadership hires lean progressive, and its advocacy work has placed it in regular opposition to Trump administration priorities. It has been openly critical of the administration's dismantling of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and of tariff-driven price increases on everyday goods.
