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.

London Underground yesterday announced its decision to close the entire Circle Line until 16 August after scheduled engineering work last week caused worse chaos than expected. Managers admitted that an emergency timetable they had spent months planning had failed to cope with the closure of a stretch of line between Gloucester Road and High Street Kensington.
Despite the closure, all Circle Line stations will remain open and they will be served as normal by other lines.
