Your support helps us to tell the story
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.

Garcia finished with a 66 to wind up at 18-under 262.
The European captain, Jose Maria Olazabal, now knows nine of his 10 automatic qualifiers: Rory McIlroy, Justin Rose, Graeme McDowell, Paul Lawrie, Francesco Molinari, Luke Donald, Lee Westwood, Garcia and Peter Hanson. The final spot up for grabs is between the German Martin Kaymer – who is not in the field at this week's Johnnie Walker Championships at Gleneagles – the Belgian Nicolas Colsaerts, Englishman David Lynn and the Spaniard Rafael Cabrera Bello.
Ian Poulter, who had been in position for the final spot, will now probably be one of the two captain's picks to be revealed on Monday.
