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 helium-filled artwork was created by one of the world's most bankable artists Jeff Koons and is being shown in the UK for the first time.
The 52ft-high balloon will be displayed in London's Covent Garden market until Sunday to tie in with the Tate Modern exhibition Pop Life: Art In A Material World, which opened last week.
Koons , famed for his kitsch sculptures and a series of pornographic images of him and his former porn star wife, modelled the balloon on a 3ft-high stainless steel sculpture Rabbit 1986.
He created the massive silver balloon for the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York in 2007, floating through the city's streets above the crowds.
The original sculpture and a film of the parade feature in the Tate Modern exhibition, which continues until January 17.
