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 electronic Xetra Dax closed up around half a percentage point at 4896.74, having been more than 2 per cent higher earlier in the day. The floor Dax finished 1 per cent higher at 4,888.74.
Deutsche Telekom was the most actively traded stock, ending up more than 5 per cent higher. The gains were triggered by the decision by the German telecoms regulator to raise the price at which Deutsche Telekom is allowed to rent local phone lines to rivals.
