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.

Bath, in their first year in the national league, are now fourth, 11 points behind leaders Bowdon, who are also in their first season and beat Nottingham 7-4. There were plenty of goals in the Premier Division but no change at the top as the leaders Reading beat third-placed Surbiton 4-3.
The day's highest scorers were second-placed Cannock with a 9-1 win against St Albans. Fourth-placed Loughborough Students closed the gap on the leaders with a 2-1 victory over Teddington. Old Loughtonians lead the First Division by three points from Beeston after extending their unbeaten record with a 5-3 win against Stourport.
