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.

Nigel Pearson, the Leicester manager, was bizarrely sent off at half time after an exchange of words with referee Gavin Ward in the home dressing room. "I don't know what really happened," Pearson said. "I was talking to my players and giving them instructions for the second half when I was rudely interrupted. I didn't see who it was that barged into my dressing room but I told them to get out."
Beckford pounced on a poor clearance by Boro goalkeeper Jason Steele with four minutes remaining. Scott McDonald had earlier cancelled out David Nugent's opener for Leicester before Tony McMahon's free-kick put Boro ahead with 11 minutes left.
