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.

Tottenham contract rebel Toby Alderweireld misses out again today as Spurs go to Stoke - but earlier this week boss Mauricio Pochettino claimed that he is leaving the Belgian out for football reasons alone.
"For me it's like all the players. We assess the players, day by day and week by week. It's true that it was unlucky when he got the injury against Real Madrid. A massive injury.
"Of course that was a difficult period for him to get back and fit. Of course different players push in their performance and he needs to wait like different players during the season, they need to keep pushing and working hard and be ready if the manager is going to give the opportunity.
"For me, like every single manager, its about performance, training sessions, form during the season and then you pick your starting XI, the best players to try to play.
"He needs to keep pushing and of course the team is in very good form, 13 games unbeaten in the Premier League. For no one it is easy to come back and play again. But for him it was a difficult moment because it was a tough, tough injury."
