Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

The footage shows the story of the film as the battle over ownership of the website unfolds, with facts and commentary integrated, such as actors' interviews on their characters and profiles including one of co-founder Mark Zuckerberg.
The information includes items such as the finding that one-third of women aged 13-24 in the US check Facebook each morning; Sean Parker, played by Justin Timberlake, suggested that they drop the 'The' from The Facebook and the average age of Facebook's 900 employees is 31.
It also lists the number of companies who tried to buy the company.
The film premieres at the 48th annual New York Film Festival on September 24 and opens in US theaters October 1.
