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.

Since spending just "£2 on his first drawing app 'Brushes' on his iPhone in 2010, he has spent the last two years perfecting his technique to create his unique masterpieces on his phone and tablet.
Roz, who works as a technician at Chichester University, said: "There are some people who think this is a gimmick.
"But I trained in fine art and to me it is just another tool to make art.
"I still paint in oils and watercolours, the two aren't mutually exclusive.
"The best thing about creating art on your iPad is that your whole studio is in your lap.
"It is great for artists with limited space, and its so quick there is no packing up or tidying".
Now using more up-to-date apps such as ProCreate and InkPad he hopes to sell some of his many works.
