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.

Another Way To Die has been written by US star White, 33, who also plays drums on the track, and will be the first duet in Bond soundtrack history.
Daniel Craig reprises his role as 007 in Quantum Of Solace, the 22nd adventure in Bond history, when the film opens later this year.
Bond producers Michael G Wilson and Barbara Broccoli said: "We are delighted and pleased to have two such exciting artists as Jack and Alicia, who were inspired by our film to join together their extraordinary talents in creating a unique sound for Quantum Of Solace."
White formed The White Stripes, which have released six albums, with his sister Meg in 1997.
He is the band's lead singer, guitarist and songwriter and also formed The Raconteurs in 2005.
US Grammy Award-winner Keys, 27, first appeared on the music scene in 2001 with her debut album Songs In A Minor.
