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.

Fallon drew a blank from four rides at Catterick and Dettori, who took the day off to promote his autobiography, still leads 171 to 163.
Seb Sanders is nine behind Fallon in third place after having one winner, Dont Call Me Derek (4-1), from five mounts at the North Yorkshire venue. Dettori is 2-5 with both Ladbrokes and William Hill to claim his third championship and his first since 1995. Fallon, the six-time winner, is 7-4 and Sanders 33-1.
All three contenders are in action at today's sole Flat meeting on the all-weather at Lingfield - Dettori having six rides, Sanders five rides and Fallon four.
Officials at Salisbury are to hold an inspection at 8am tomorrow ahead of Friday's meeting.
