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.

With television broadcast details also published, the EFL announced that 11 matches will be shown live on Sky Sports across the next three rounds of fixtures, with two other games being shown on the weekend of 20/21 June.
Second-placed West Bromwich Albion will be in action on Saturday afternoon with a home 3pm kick-off against rivals Birmingham City, while Sunday’s encounter will see league-leaders Leeds United head to Cardiff City.
Brentford will feature on Sky once again the following weekend as the number of televised games increases to five, with Thomas Frank’s side in action against West Brom on Friday night.
A promotion crunch clash between Leeds and Fulham will headline a double-header on Saturday 27 June, with the tie pitting first against third set to follow Preston North End’s 12:30pm kick-off against Cardiff, while Sunday’s action will see play-off hopefuls Bristol City take on Sheffield Wednesday in the early game before Nottingham Forest entertain Huddersfield Town.
The first round of midweek fixtures will take place across Tuesday 30 June, Wednesday 1 and Thursday 2 July, with the three televised fixtures all kicking off at 5pm with Premier League action also scheduled on the same evenings. Millwall will take on Swansea City on Tuesday, with Preston and Derby in action on the Wednesday before Hull City and Middlesbrough return to televised action on Thursday.
Sky Sports will confirm the remaining televised fixtures from 4 July at a later date, with a commitment to show a total of 30 games live out of the 108 outstanding fixtures.
However, season-ticket holders will still be able to watch every match even though they will be held behind closed doors, with club’s broadcasting every home and away match through the EFL’s iFollow service or their equivalent platforms.
