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.

Your support makes all the difference.

Sir: It was with incredulity that I read the claims outlined by Deborah Woolhouse (letter, 10 April). Yes, Genesis tells us that two of every kind of bird, animal and creature would come along to the ark: what it doesn't tell us is how they got there or how they knew where to go.

Perhaps God provided detailed directions or appropriate transport along with the invitations issued to the lucky two representatives of every species.
