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.

The 17-year-old son of the former West Ham striker, Leroy, himself leaving his position as City coach to become manager of Merthyr Tydfil, the Dr Martens League club, is regarded as one of the club's brightest prospects.
Rosenior, who can play at centre-back or in midfield, signed a three-year contract earlier this season and is already a regular in City's Under-19 side and has featured in the reserves.
Trevor Benjamin has joined Crystal Palace on a one-month loan from Leicester. The 22-year-old has yet to score this season, and his first-team chances have been limited since Brian Deane's arrival at Filbert Street. Benjamin will go straight into the squad to face Nottingham Forest today.
Carlton Palmer, the Stockport manager, has placed the Finnish midfielder Jarkko Wiss on the transfer list after deciding the 28-year-old was surplus to requirements. Palmer has claimed that Wiss, who was bought by his predecessor Andy Kilner for £350,000 last year, was not "pulling his weight" in training.
Chesterfield are free to bring in new players after the Professional Footballers' Association lifted the transfer embargo on the club. The Spireites had been prevented from buying players since last spring when the PFA stepped in to pay £185,000 in players' wages. That debt has been cut to about £50,000.
Oldham have signed Chesterfield's striker David Reeves on a month's loan. The transfer-listed pair, Mark Innes and Mark Allott, have moved in the opposite direction.
The Bradford captain Stuart McCall has claimed it is "highly unlikely" that he will be selected by the manager Jim Jefferies in the near future. McCall was left out of the squad for the trip to Manchester City last Sunday and said he had been told that his "legs have gone".
Blackpool have confirmed they are interested in bringing the Aston Villa striker Richard Walker back to the club. Walker spent the last three months of last season on loan at Bloomfield Road and the manager Steve McMahon could be set to bring him back to replace Brett Ormerod, who has joined Southampton for £1.75m.
