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.

Joseph Puglia’s dash-cam recorded the incident on Florida's Interstate 275 in Tampa.
He told ABC Action News that his heart “really sank, until I started seeing him breathing”.
After finding the unconscious creature in the outside lane and realising it was still alive, Mr Puglia wrapped it in an emergency blanket and put it into his vehicle.
The dog, nicknamed Lucky, survived with minor injuries and has been taken to an animal shelter.
Mr. Puglia said that his family is willing to adopt the dog if no-one claims for it.
