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.

In April, the streaming service has its busiest month of the year so far thanks to the arrival of some high-profile new films and TV shows.
Hoping to crack the Netflix top 10 is superhero comedy Thunder Force, which unites Melissa McCarthy and Octavia Spencer, as well as Shadow and Bone, the first adaptation of Leigh Bardugo’s fantasy Grisha trilogy.
Then there’s Run, Aneesh Chaganty’s horror thriller following a teenager whose overprotective mother (Sarah Paulson) uses the fact she has a wheelchair as a justifiable reason to keep her locked away from outside world.
Find the full list of every movie and TV show coming to Netflix in April below.
