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.

THE appeal of the All Blacks player, Richard Loe, against a nine-month suspension for eye-gouging the Otago full- back Greg Cooper earlier this month has been delayed, the New Zealand Rugby Football Union said yesterday. The appeal was due to be heard on 29 October, but the NZRFU said in a statement that Loe was offered an option of three dates in early December after his representatives said they had not had time to prepare a case.
