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.

Founded in the Gold Rush when the first flakes of this precious metal were found in the South Platte River, Denver, has been attracting visitors ever since – but not just for the spectacular scenery and adventure offered by the majestic Rocky Mountains.
Denver is home to world-class museums, art galleries and theatres. It has a thriving street market and café culture - each neighbourhood has its own distinct vibe. From Cherry Creek, with its independent shops and brand-name stores, to the historic and hip LoDo with its vibrant nightlife, flourishing live music scene and comedy clubs.
Undeniably, the climate and scenery make Denver the ideal destination for those who love the outdoors. Denver is the gateway to the national parks, blue lakes, worldfamous golf courses and mountain resorts. It’s a great fly-drive destination - you can even drive all the way to the top of Mount Evans or relax in the hot springs.
Icelandair flies from London via Iceland (with an hour's transit time) to Denver and is not just more refreshing, it's more affordable, too. You can add Reykjavik as a second city destination for no additional airfare and save £54 on air passenger duty.
We've teamed up with Icelandair to give readers the chance to win two return flights from London to Denver to visit this stonishing city.
