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.For a stylish alternative to the usual Christmas jumper, menswear designer Christopher New has created a limited-edition T-shirt in silver on white. Proceeds from sales go to the Peter Walker Trust, which directly helps people with Aids. The T-shirt comes in two sizes: adults' (XL) and children's (age 6-10). Send a pounds 10 donation to the trust plus pounds 2 p&p per order (make cheques payable to The Peter Walker Trust) to The Peter Walker Trust T-Shirt Offer, Roger Dack, Studio 2, 83 Shepperton Road, London N1 3DF.
