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.

Barcelona are confident that both striker Thierry Henry and midfielder Andres Iniesta will be fit for next week's Champions League final against Manchester United, defender Gerard Pique said.

"The team is confident they will get there," Pique said in remarks at an awards ceremony published on Barca's website (www.fcbarcelona.cat). "They are working day and night to recover and I am sure they will get there," he added.

France captain Henry injured a knee in a 6-2 win at Real Madrid on May 2 and Spain's Iniesta strained a thigh muscle in a 3-3 draw to Villarreal on May 10.
