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.

Your support makes all the difference.

MARK CHERRILL, an independent financial adviser who is about to join the City office of Mazars Neville Russell, the accountants, is a worried man. His joining date of 19 April coincides with one of the recommended conception nights for those aiming for a "millennium baby".

When asked whether it was wise to start a City job in what could in other terms be a very demanding week, Mr Cherrill sighed: "I'll be keeping my wife barred from the bedroom door. We've just had our second daughter, who was born last week."
