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.

The head-on crash happened near Forres in the Grampian region between a Peugeot 405 estate car and an articulated lorry. The five who died were all in the car - a father, mother and their two sons, all believed to be from the Southampton area, and the policeman's son, who was a friend of the family.
The ages of the boys are thought to range from six to 14.
