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.

Leicester City
THE 27-YEAR-OLD former Norwich full back's career at Filbert Street seemed ill-starred from the outset when he broke an ankle only minutes into his debut in February 1997. The injury kept him out for 10 months and was followed by a long and difficult comeback. Then, having established himself last season he broke his ankle at Chelsea in April - only a month before his contract expired. Having turned down a new offer, he now finds himself both unfit and unpaid.

Aston Villa
JOHN GREGORY nipped in ahead of a number of Premiership rivals to sign Cardiff City's talented right wing-back in March, having searched long and hard for a player to fill the gap in his Aston Villa squad left by the loss first of Gary Charles and then Fernando Nelson. The 23-year- old had a taste of the top flight with two appearances from the bench and made his full debut in Saturday's win at Newcastle. An initial fee of pounds 350,000 (rising to pounds 500,000) could soon look a bargain.
