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.

If I had one wish: "we would be best friends. Love would never end, it will just begin," "I'd want everyone who tweeted a variation of 'I'd wish for more wishes' to be beaten with a book of unoriginal clichés" and "i would feed all the hungry tummies and thirsty mouths," tweet Twitter users.
The memes "#unlikeothergirls" and "#parejasperfectas" follow in second and third places.
The last names of professional tennis players Caroline "Wozniacki" and Maria "Sharapova" are trending in fourth and fifth places after Wozniacki defeated Sharapova in round four of the US Open tournament on September 6.
