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.

A FEW MONTHS ago, the former South African President P.W. Botha was engaged to a woman 34 years his junior.
Mr Botha yesterday got married - to a different woman. Mr Botha last year became engaged to Reinette Te Water Naude, but dumped her because she was seeing another man. The new woman in Botha's life is Barbara Robertson, 57, a legal secretary. The couple were wed in Mr Botha's home in front of family and friends.
