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.

Four years after the release of the critically-acclaimed animation, the follow-up is scheduled to arrive in cinemas February 2019 with the subtitle 'The Second Part.'
The news was announced on the film's official Twitter account accompanied by a brand new poster.
Chris Pratt and Elizabeth Banks will return as lead characters Master Builder Emmet Brickowoski and Wyldstyle alongside Jonah Hill (Green Lantern), Channing Tatum (Superman) and Lego Batman himself Will Arnett. There'll also be a new addition in the form of Tiffany Haddish who'll be playing a “key new character.”
Replacing Phil Lord and Chris Miller as directors is Trolls filmmaker Mike Mitchell with the former duo remaining on board as producers. Excitingly, Raphael Bob-Waksberg - the creator of Netflix comedy BoJack Horseman - was hired to re-write the script alongside Mike Fogel.
The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part is set to hit UK cinemas on 8 February 2019.
