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.
Your support makes all the difference.Ed Miliband began the long march towards a tricky set of local elections yesterday. The Labour leader launched his party's local elections campaign in Birmingham. But his real preoccupation will be the mayoral contest in London, where Labour is desperate for Ken Livingstone to oust Boris Johnson.
Labour is also bracing itself for a hammering in its former stronghold of Glasgow, where the party lost power for the first time in nearly 40 years last month.
