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.

McDonald (muscle tightness), Uwakwe (ankle) and Baker-Richardson (muscle tightness) will be given every chance to come through.
Christopher Long has been limited to one appearance this season because of an ankle issue and remains out.
New Doncaster boss Danny Schofield will pick his first team with a view to making them hard to beat.
“We will start putting things in place to make us competitive first and foremost, and then ultimately trying to win football matches,” he said.
Kieran Agard is pushing for a start after being limited to a cameo role in the 3-0 defeat at Carlisle because of food poisoning.
Aidan Barlow and Reo Griffiths are unlikely to be involved because of injuries.
