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.

Typically, the precision engineering group Transfer Technology, 520p at the beginning of the year, ended the week at only 345p, a mere 13p up and still yielding more than 5 per cent. And even in the building sector a handful of small specialists still look cheap. Victaulic, which makes pipes and is an obvious beneficiary of any construction pick-up, is still more than 100p below its 1992 high.
