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.

Portuguese newspaper Diario de Noticias claims that an announcement will be made on the Serbian, who will join on a four-year deal in the next few days.
The 20-year-old has been linked with a move to Anfield all summer, and was an integral part of the Benfica side who won the Portuguese top flight last season.
Markovic will join Adam Lallana, Rickie Lambert and Emre Can as the new arrivals at Anfield as Brendan Rodgers strengthens his squad for their Champions League campaign next season.
Southampton duo Dejan Lovren and Morgan Schneiderlin have also been linked with moves to the club.
The Reds will recoup between £63-£75m when the sale of controversial striker Luis Suarez to Barcelona is completed.
