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.

Interim head coach Stuart Lancaster already has a tough task on his hands and looks set to be without Leicester's Tuilagi in Edinburgh on February 4 after he suffered the injury during the Tigers' Aviva Premiership win against Worcester on December 27.
Leicester director of rugby Richard Cockerill expects Tuilagi to be out for around a month, meaning the 20-year-old faces a fight to be fit for the second Six Nations game against Italy on February 11.
"Manu will be out for four to six weeks," Cockerill is quoted as telling the Daily Telegraph. "It may be a month depending on how his rehab goes."
