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.

Each series, the ITV2 reality show throws 12 new contestants into the mix just over midway through, putting the existing couples to the test.
Among those hoping to win hearts are an American football player, a social media influencer and an international DJ.
One of the dozen new people arriving on the show is Amy Day, a 25-year-old actor from Surrey.
Amy, who appeared in an episode of the Channel 4 drama Humans, has experience performing on cruise ships and hopes to one day appear in the soap Hollyoaks.
Speaking about her decision to appear on Love Island, Day said: “I’m here to find love. I will step on toes if needs be, but that’s obviously not my aim. But they might also realise what they had was just because that’s all they had.”

She told ITV: “I’m fun, I don’t take anything seriously. I don’t get knocked back easily, I’m always like this is what was meant to happen. I’m positive and also a really good friend.”
Love Island continues every night, except Saturday, at 9pm on ITV2 and ITV Hub. Episodes are available the following morning on BritBox.
