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 their Great Britain duo Barry Middleton and Graham Moodie continuing their impressive form, Cannock's victory against the Italians never looked in doubt after Middleton had set up the opening goal. With Andy Langlands leading the forwards with pace, and Middleton and Moodie providing the direction, it was only a matter of time before further goals came.
Langlands scored the second just on the interval and second-half goals from Moodie and Simon Ramsden, who both grabbed a brace, were the icing on the cake.
Today, Cannock face the host club Lille, who lost 2-1 to Ulhenhorster from Hamburg.
In the women's tournament in Cologne, Chelmsford beat La Gantoise from Belgium 5-1 in their opening game while, in the same pool, Glasgow Western won 4-2 against Dinamo Sumcharka from the Ukraine. Chelmsford play the Scots today.
