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.

Mobile network 3 has announced its pricing for the iPhone 6s — the newly-launched Apple handset that is already projected to smash through sales records.

3 Mobile is offering the 6s in four different colours and three different capacities: 16, 64 or 128GB.

All tariffs come with a £99 upfront cost on a 24 month contract with unlimited texts and minutes.

The cheapest contract is for the 16GB phone with 1GB data allowance for £38 a month. Paying more each month will increase the phone’s memory, data allowance or both.

The most expensive option is the 128GB phone with unlimited data, texts and minutes for £61 a month.

For the heavy internet user, the cheapest “all-you-can-eat” data package is £51 a month on the 16GB phone.

Pre-orders for the iPhone opened over the weekend. It will go on sale on September 25.

Sales are already projected to smash through records set by the iPhone 6, and pre-orders have already led to weeks-long waits to actually have the phone delivered.
