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.

In London Billy Bonds, the West Ham manager, was celebrating a pounds 1m transfer coup after convincing John Moncur, the Swindon defender, to move to Upton Park and not Chelsea. Glenn Hoddle, the Chelsea manager, had been confident of signing him after weekend talks. Moncur cost Swindon pounds 80,000 when he signed from Tottenham in 1992.
Fergus McCann, the Celtic chief executive, yesterday denied claims that the Glasgow club have made Kenny Dalglish, the Blackburn manager, an offer to become manager, following the departure of Lou Macari last week.
