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 cash will go towards developing the group's Nigerian off-shore exploration interests and reducing debt. Once a high-flying Colombian explorer, Tuskar's shares briefly touched 100p. Then when its oil find was uncommercial the price collapsed to 1p. It was "reborn" in October 1996 when a Houston group acquired control, moving operations to Nigeria.
Network Technology held at 219p. Merrill Lynch is looking for profits to climb pounds 2.4m to pounds 5.7m this year and reach pounds 8.3m next.
