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 hero of Surbiton's performance in their 4-2 win against An der Alster, the European Club champions, today was the 19-year-old Matt Daly who scored twice in the opening six minutes.
The Germans pulled a goal back in the 18th minute as Thomas Tihl scored the first of his two goals following up at a penalty corner. Surbiton. however, soon responded with goals from Tim Pinnick and an inspired effort from Ivan Steen which took them into the interval leading 4-1. Thomas' second goal came in the closing minutes with Surbiton tiring after their super effort.
In Rotterdam, Slough produced a disappointing performance in their final pool game against Grange, from Edinburgh, when they were surprisingly beaten 1-0. A 43rd-minute goal from Claire Lampard separated the clubs.
