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.

Your support makes all the difference.

DAMASCUS - The US Secretary of State, Warren Christopher, held four hours of talks with the Syrian President Hafez al-Assad yesterday, carrying an Israeli peace offer for a phased withdrawal from the Golan Heights. Israeli radio said the plan included a proposal to return three Druze villages to Syria as a first step in restarting peace talks. But Syrian radio said Damascus would reject any plan that did not involve total Israeli withdrawal. AFP
