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.

The West Indian Test batsman, who held talks with the county's chief executive, Dennis Amiss, on Tuesday after his recent absences from fielding duty, is struggling to overcome a knee injury. He has also had a problem with his eye, which swelled up after he was hit during the match at Northampton last Sunday.
The captain, Dermot Reeve, is also trying to overcome a groin injury and, with the Benson and Hedges Cup final coming up on 9 July, he may opt to hand over the reins to the vice-captain, Tim Munton.
Andrew Caddick returns to Championship action for Somerset against Worcestershire at Taunton today. He has missed a month with a shoulder injury. It is also Mushtaq Ahmed's final Championship appearance of the season before he joins Pakistan's party for the tour to Sri Lanka at the end of next week.
