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.The International Cycling Union president, Pat McQuaid, has insisted the world governing body will hold an independent study of its practices during confessed doper Lance Armstrong's years of dominance.
An independent commission was set up and disbanded by the UCI due to a dispute over an amnesty for witnesses. Yet McQuaid, seeking re-election for a third term as UCI president, pledged: "The UCI remains committed to an independent audit of the behaviour and practices of our organisation during the Armstrong years."
