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 53-year-old man's body was discovered at a house in Hove, Sussex.
Police found the body in a harness surrounded by a number of gas cylinders containing unknown substances, according to the Eastbourne Herald.
The man’s body was reportedly discovered by his son and neighbours in the surrounding area were briefly evacuated as a precaution.
South East Coast Ambulance Service’s hazardous area response team attended the scene, but it was soon determined there was no threat to public safety, according to the Eastbourne Herald.
A spokesman for the Sussex Police told Metro: “Police are not treating the death as suspicious and the coroner has been informed.”
A sex swing is described as a type of harness or sling designed for people to have sex while one person is suspended.
