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.

Norway's Labour minority government resigned, paving the way for Kjell Magne Bondevik and a new three-party centrist coalition to take power. The Labour Prime Minister, Thorbjoern Jagland, announced the resignation of his 12-month-old government to parliament after it had presented the draft budget for 1998. Mr Jagland had said he would stand down after the Labour Party failed to win a self-imposed target of 36.9 per cent of the popular vote in last month's general election. King Harald V asked Mr Bondevik, of the Christian People's Party, to form a new government.
