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.

Doctors have advised the Super League champions' player to rest for three months, avoiding all contact training.
Jones-Bishop, 24, said: "It is disappointing to miss the start of the season, but I am looking forward and doing everything I can to get back as soon as I can once I am given the all-clear. I am only able to do very light training at the minute and I will have another scan in a couple of weeks to see if I can increase that, but I know I have to avoid contact for three months at least."
