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.

The Aegon GB Davis Cup Team’s crucial World Group play-off match against Croatia will take place in picturesque Umag on the western coast of Croatia between 13-15 September. Courtesy of financial services company Aegon, we are offering one lucky winner a trip for two to watch this exciting Davis Cup tie by BNP Paribas with travel and accommodation.
The clay courts of the country's westernmost city will see Great Britain attempt to build on their victory over Russia and return to the top level of the Davis Cup by BNP Paribas for the first time in five years.
Led by world number 11 Marin Cilic and Ivan Dodig, Croatia will pose a threat against Britain’s top players. Britain and Croatia have only played each other once before in the Davis Cup, with Britain winning 4-1 at Wimbledon in a 2007 World Group play-off.
