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 Middle East peace talks at Camp David collapsed on Tuesday, but in conceding failure, President Bill Clinton said Israeli and Palestinian negotiators "made real headway" toward a future settlement.
Clinton returned to the White House to say that the gaps between Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak and Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat had not been bridged, but forecast that they will be "because I think the alternative is unthinkable."
"I think they both remain committed to peace," he said. "I think they will both find a way to get there if they don't let time run away from them."
The two Middle East leaders spent 14 days at Camp David with Clinton as the sponsor and sometimes personal mediator in the peace talks to which he had called them.
