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.

Saturday's 3-1 loss to Manchester Storm was their 13th from their last 15 matches and they are in danger of missing out on the play-offs, having finished last season as beaten finalists.
Newcastle Jesters remain rooted to the foot of the Superleague as they set a new club record with their eighth consecutive defeat at the Telewest Arena. Saturday's 3-1 loss to Manchester Storm was their 13th from their last 15 matches and they are in danger of missing out on the play-offs, having finished last season as beaten finalists.
Despite taking the lead through Daniel Lacroix on nine minutes, Greg Bullock soon scored the equalising marker. Two goals in 56 seconds just after the midway point from Trevor Gallant and Mike Morin sealed Storm's second win in three days.
Newcastle remain in a bitter battle with Nottingham, though, for the wooden spoon as just one point separates the sides after the Panthers suffered a 4-3 loss at the National Ice Rink to Cardiff Devils.
Cardiff stretched their league record winning run to 12 matches, although they were given a late scare in front of a crowd of 6,500.
