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.

Twenty fillies have been entered for the Group Three contest which is the feature of the first day of Newmarket's Craven meeting.
'It's a much bigger entry than I expected,' her trainer, Neville Callaghan, said. 'I will have to talk things over with her owners.' The contest is sure to be a useful guide to the Guineas, with the well-fancied quartet Relatively Special, Prophecy, Glatisant and Risky also among the entries.
Nell Gwyn entries: Ballerina, Blue Siren, Bulaxie, Fairy Heights, Fawaakeh, Glatisant, Kissing Cousin, Luana, Mehthaaf, Miss Sacha, One False Move, Prophecy, Reason To Dance, Red October, Red Rita, Relatively Special, Risky, Rohita, Salvezza, Satin Velvet.
