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.

Nardi, who was 61 and had worked with Racing since 2001, was struck by the lightning during an electric storm on Tuesday when he went to recover a ball near a water tap. He was taken to hospital but did not survive.
"We are saddened to inform of the death of our employee Cesar Nardi 'Chechu' during training of the professional squad," Racing said in a statement.
