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.

FEARS WERE mounting last night that a Bath woman missing since last Wednesday has been abducted and attacked by her estranged husband.

Police were looking for a black BMW that was driven off from Bath centre with Katey Caven, 38, trapped in the back.

Avon and Somerset detectives said two passers-by dialled 999 after Mrs Caven shouted to them to call police before she was forced into the car and driven off on Wednesday.

About four hours later Mrs Caven telephoned her sister, and said she had been abducted by her estranged husband, Milton Caven, 39, before the phone was slammed down.

Police were anxious to trace Mrs Caven and her husband. Mr Caven is black, 6ft, with dreadlocks. Mrs Caven, of mixed race, is slim, 5ft 7in, with short burgundy-coloured hair and brown eyes. She was wearing a brown leather coat with a white fur collar and a grey jogging suit.
