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.

Karthikeyan competed in the first eight grands prix last season before being ousted in favour of Daniel Ricciardo, who this year drives for Toro Rosso.
Karthikeyan retained a role as Hispania's test driver, and went on to make history as the first Indian to drive in his home grand prix. The 35-year-old will now partner 40-year-old Pedro de la Rosa at HRT. He said: "It has taken a lot of hard work but I am elated to feature on the 2012 grid."
