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 RESULTS of the Prime Minister's 'taking stock' exercise on reforms for Scotland are to made public early in the new year.

The timing was disclosed yesterday in a message from Lord Sanderson, the Scottish Tory party chairman, who gave no hint of what they were likely to be.

A home rule parliament, however, of the type demanded by Opposition parties in Scotland, will not be in the proposals.

Mr Major's exercise began almost immediately after the general election, when he promised a long, hard look at ways to address Scottish grievances.

Staging the EC summit in Edinburgh was the first tangible evidence of his determination to give Scotland a higher profile.
