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.

Shea Neary, of Liverpool, became Britain's newest world boxing champion by taking the vacant World Union title with a unanimous points victory over the American Darryl Tyson at Everton Park Sports Centre. It was the first WBU fight to be staged in Britain, and the 28-year-old Neary gave the organisation a splendid launch, building up a massive early lead and holding on to win by the wide margin of 119-110 on two cards and 118-110 on the third.
