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.

Dutch shoppers flocked to the opening of their country's first Apple store in Amsterdam yesterday, ahead of the US company's expected launch of its new iPad3 tablet on Wednesday. Apple chief executive Tim Cook will make his first major product announcement since the death of founder Steve Jobs last year but the company has not confirmed if this will be the new iPad. The technology giant behind the iPhone and iPod is ramping up the expansion of its stores, which already number over 360 worldwide. Apple is set to open a new London concession at department store Harrods in Knightsbridge later this month.
