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.

Gerrard posted a picture of the banner on Instagram after the Reds 1-1 draw with Chelsea in the Capital One Cup semi-final, with the caption: "Proud of my new flag on the kop. Thanks to the lads who are behind it . .great support again tonight . All to play for next week. #spionkop #ynwa"
Hart was a five-time WWF heavyweight champion, and four-time WCW champion after defecting to the rival brand in controversial circumstances in 1997. He was known as the "Excellence of Execution" due to his wrestling pedigree. It was more of a case of "The Excellence of Executing Penalties" for Gerrard.
The 34-year-old Gerrard leaves the Reds in the summer to join Los Angeles Galaxy in the MLS, ending a 26-year association with his boyhood club.
