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.

We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Liverpool forward Milan Jovanovic has branded the Carling Cup exit to League Two Northampton as a "catastrophe".
The Serbia international got the Reds off to an ideal start with his first goal for the club after just nine minutes.
However, it went rapidly downhill from there and although David Ngog snatched a late equaliser in extra time to make it 2-2 Liverpool went out on penalties, the first time they had gone out to fourth-tier opposition.
"Catastrophe. I am so disappointed," said Jovanovic on the result.
"We know this is not Liverpool. It is very bad.
"I am so surprised by the performance. I have not got enough experience of English football but I didn't expect this.
"Northampton played a really good game. We played a bad game - but this is football."
Jovanovic added in the Liverpool Echo: "I am so disappointed. We all are.
"We are sorry for the result but we have to move on now."
