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 ex-Arsenal and Celtic striker had been in the care of the cancer team at Singleton Hospital in Swansea after being transferred there from the critical care unit.
A statement from the hospital’s Trust said: “John Hartson has completed the first phase of his chemotherapy treatment and has been discharged from hospital. He will now continue his chemotherapy treatment as an outpatient.”
His family said in a statement: “John is glad to be back with his family, and ready to face the next steps in his chemotherapy.”
Hartson was admitted to hospital last month for emergency surgery for testicular cancer which had spread to his brain.
