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 Turf Moor, we take a look at how the sides' midfielders Scott Arfield and Adam Johnson compare.
Recently promoted Burnley are already emerging as relegation favourites as Sean Dyche’s side have scored just once this season and have only picked up two points from four games.
George Boyd has arrived from Hull tasked with providing goals from midfield and had a promising debut on Saturday against Crystal Palace. A lack of funds has forced Dyche into the loan market, signing Nathaniel Chalobah from Chelsea and Michael Keane from Manchester United, and Clarets fans will hope their pedigree proves valuable.
