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.

Stephen Hendry should have little difficulty finding motivation for the Liverpool Victoria Charity Challenge, which gets under way in Birmingham today.
The world champion, who has captured 57 titles in 10 years as a professional, is representing the Cystic Fibrosis Trust, and he is clearly looking ahead to his latest challenge, which carries a pounds 30,000 first prize.
Hendry said: "It's difficult to keep getting psyched up at times but there's no problem when it comes to the charity challenge." The world No 1 will face John Higgins in the opening round.
