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.

Sir: Charles Arthur is incorrect in claiming that all railway stations are no longer listed in the telephone directory ("Mystery tale of the missing railway stations", 31 December).
A glance at the Yellow Pages for Shropshire, Hereford and Mid-Wales will reveal the mainline railway station contact telephone numbers for Gobowen (01691 679659), Ledbury, Ludlow and Newtown Powys. These stations, together with those at Pembrey and Burry Port, Clitheroe and Saxmundham, have booking offices provided by travel agents who specialise in national and international rail travel and whose staff spare no effort to apply the highest standards of customer care, including an efficient local train enquiry service.
