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.

The outbreak of Covid-19 has officially been declared a pandemic by the World Health Organisation.

The UK alone now has more than 250,000 cases, and the Department of Health has confirmed more than 35,000 deaths.

The US has the most coronavirus-related deaths in the world with more than 1.5 million cases and at least 91,000 fatalities, according to data by John Hopkins University.
