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.

A 10-month-old girl and her 20-year-old mother were injured in a petrol bomb attack on their home early today.
They both suffered burns when the device was thrown through the bedroom window of their home at Glenarm on the Co Antrim coast and started a fire.
The mother fled with her baby from the burning house at Glenview Cottages at around 1.15am and both were treated in hospital for burns. Their injuries were not believed serious and they were released after the treatment.
A male occupant of the house escaped unhurt.
The RUC said the petrol bomb damaged a bed. There was no immediate indication of the motive for the attack.
