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.

Ahead of the match at Villa Park, we take a look at how the sides' players Ashley Westwood and Fernandinho compare.
Manuel Pellegrini’s Manchester City need a win at Villa Park to keep the pressure on title rivals Chelsea. City have won just four of their 10 matches in all competitions this season, but each victory has come in some style. Last week, they followed a 7-0 demolition of Sheffield Wednesday in the Capital One Cup with a 4-2 league victory over Hull, but were unable to see off a solid Roma outfit in their midweek Champions League fixture.
In third place, and already five points off José Mourinho’s outfit, Pellegrini will be hoping that victory here can begin a period of consistency for his expensively-assembled and mercurial side.
