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.

The massive LVMH group, the world's largest luxury goods manufacturer, is to open two further luxury hotels under the "Cheval Blanc" brand and is considering other venues.
The current hotels planned will open in Egypt and Oman in 2012, said LVMH. The Egyptian development is on a private island in Aswan, while the development in Oman is on the island of Al Sodah and includes 32 private villas.
LVMH owns over 60 brands, amongst them some of the world's most recognizable labels, including Givenchy, Marc Jacobs, Thomas Pink, TAG Heuer, Sephora, Donna Karan, Kenzo, Glenmorangie, Louis Vuitton and Moet et Chandon.
The existing Cheval Blanc, in the exclusive French ski resort of Courcheval, offers 34 rooms with a Givenchy spa, John Nollet hair salon and a ski store stocking high-end accessories.
