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: I have just driven down the A1 for 100 miles and have enjoyed the bright spring flowers which decorate the verges most of the way. These are nearly all bright yellow, and can be identified as oilseed rape. These flowers were never planted there, but found their way there, borne on the wind or by birds. Can anyone really believe that GM plants won't be carpeting the verges in a few years' time?
