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.

Adrian Dale bowled Glamorgan to their fifth County Championship victory of the season and into the Second Division promotion zone with a quality display of medium pace at Colwyn Bay yesterday.
Dale took four of the last six Sussex wickets to fall and finished with 5 for 46 as Glamorgan won by an innings and 60 runs to claim the maximum 20 points.
Sussex were bowled out in their second innings for 316 after resuming the final day on 168 for 4, a further 208 shy of making Glamorgan bat again.
It was an uphill task made harder when they lost Chris Adams, who had not added to his overnight 68, in the first over.
Robin Martin-Jenkins and Umer Rashid then held up Glamorgan with an entertaining partnership of 84 before Martin-Jenkins, on 77, played down the wrong line to become Dale's first victim of the day.
Rashid hit six boundaries in reaching a quick half-century off only 57 balls but was then caught at mid-off when he mistimed a drive against Dale.
Nick Wilton also helped keep Glamorgan at bay, but he soon ran out of partners.
