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.

Mountain rescue official Doru Deaconescu said the latest victim, a 64-year-old man, was found dead on Wednesday, some 100 kilometers (60 miles) northwest of Bucharest.
It was the second bear attack in the same area in recent days.
Deaconescu said a 71-year-old man was found dead on Saturday, and two people were injured after being attacked by bears the same day.
Romania has a few thousand bears living in the wild, more than half of all the bears in the European Union, and hunting them is regulated but not outlawed.
