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.

Although Euro 96 is still seven months away and the draw has yet to be made, more than 65 per cent of available tickets have already been sold.
England are the only team who know where they will be playing (at Wembley) in the group matches. If they proceed, England would play at Wembley or Anfield in the quarter-finals and Wembley or Old Trafford in the semi-finals. Wembley has now sold 86 per cent of its current allocation for all matches.
Ticket prices for the tournament range from pounds 15 to pounds 135. It is only possible to buy tickets for the knock-out stages if tickets have also been bought for group games. This means that in order to purchase one ticket for the final, a minimum of pounds 270 must be spent on a total of at least 11 tickets covering matches at all stages of the tournament.
A second tranche of tickets will be allocated after the draw on 17 December. Each competing visiting team has been allocated a total of 7,000 tickets per match, with a larger allocation being made for the final.
Tickets may only be obtained by postal application. Forms are available from from any branch of Midland Bank.
