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.

Your support makes all the difference.Antony Martial will be Manchester United's captain one day, his brother Dorian has said.
The 19-year-old forward made his international debut for France on Friday night, in their 1-0 win over Portugal, having signed for United in the week on a massive transfer from Monaco in a deal that could rise to £58m.
“Anthony has all the qualities needed to be Manchester United and France captain," Dorian told The Sun. "He has always been a natural leader in a team — he’s been like that since he was six.
“My little brother isn’t someone who will shout at all the players around him. He doesn’t need to because he speaks with his incredible skills.
“Anthony is a talisman and has the ego and personality on the pitch to be a captain of Manchester United and even France.
"Of course, not right now — because he is just 19 — but definitely in the future. He comes from a club that has produced two France captains.
“Patrice Evra went on to be United skipper while Thierry Henry had the armband at Arsenal. It’s in the DNA here because players are well educated. They’re taught to be responsible but also respectful.
“The fee is a lot of money but Anthony will not worry. He doesn’t know the meaning of the word ‘pressure.’"
