Mother Jones (abbreviated MoJo) is a nonprofit American progressive[1][2] magazine that focuses on news, commentary, and investigative journalism on topics including politics, environment, human rights, health and culture. Clara Jeffery serves as editor-in-chief of the magazine. Monika Bauerlein has been the CEO since 2015.[1][3][4] Mother Jones was published by the Foundation for National Progress, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit,[5][6] until 2024, when it merged with The Center for Investigative Reporting, now its publisher.[7]

The magazine is named after Mary Harris Jones, known as Mother Jones, an Irish-American trade union activist, socialist advocate, and ardent opponent of child labor.[8]
