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.

The eclipse was seen across the world from Australia to Asia and North America, but was blocked by cloud in Britain. The eclipse, which is caused by the Earth's shadow falling across the lunar surface, gives the Moon an unusual, blood-red appearance. The Moon was totally eclipsed for 51 minutes and eight seconds. The next full eclipse of the Moon is not expected until 14 April 2014.
