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.Britain could help struggling eurozone countries by increasing its payments to the International Monetary Fund by billions of pounds, George Osborne, pictured, said yesterday.

The UK has already handed over £30bn of the £40bn it has earmarked for the IMF and would need parliamentary approval to send more than £10bn to it.
Finance ministers of the G20 group of the biggest economies will discuss IMF funding in Mexico next month.
