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.

Tokyo and Moscow are the most expensive while London comes 13th in the list of the dearest destinations, and Dublin 37th.
The figures are based on what it costs a businessman daily for a single room in a four-star hotel with continental breakfast. It also takes into account soft drinks, taxis and other incidental costs.
The daily costs in Tokyo are about pounds 319, Moscow pounds 285, London pounds 200 and Dublin about pounds 155. Those looking for a cheap stay could try Caracas ( pounds 84 a day), Karachi ( pounds 80) or Istanbul ( pounds 66).
