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.

STATISTICS OF THE DAY
300-1 The highest odds available about Ben Curtis before the start of the Open. By yesterday morning he was down to 40-1, and several large bets, one of £10,000 and another at £8,000, brought the odds down to 11-8.
90 The number of years since a golfer won when playing in his first major tournament. The 20-year-old Francis Ouimet became the first when he triumphed over Harry Vardon and Ted Ray in a play-off at the 1913 US Open near Boston.
14,130 The size in dollars [£8,872] of Ben Curtis's first prize money this year, which he won in March by making his first cut of the year on the US PGA Tour and finishing one over par for joint 42nd place at the Bay Hill Invitational.
