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.

Pakistan restored their pride, following last week's innings defeat, by dismissing Zimbabwe for 174 on the opening day of the second Test in Bulawayo yesterday as their pace attack took control. Only a gritty 60 by Alistair Campbell enabled the hosts to recover after being reduced to 23 for 3 and then 86 for 6. Grant Flower became Wasim Akram's 250th Test wicket.
