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.

DEAL OF THE WEEK

One little-known fact about Individual Savings Accounts (ISAs) is that it is possible for investors in maturing Tessas to transfer up to pounds 9,000 of the capital from one tax-free plan to another - in addition to the pounds 5,000 annual investment limit (pounds 7,000 in 1999/2000). National Savings is launching a Tessa-only ISA, paying 5.75 per cent. The rate paid is guaranteed to match base rates until April 2000. The ISA meets the Treasury's voluntary CATmark scheme, requiring it to have low charges, easy access and fair terms. There is access to savings without notice period, charges or loss of interest for withdrawals.
