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.

Colin Todd, of Bolton Wanderers, has been named the Nationwide Manager of the Month for January. Wanderers won all three of their First Division matches during the first month of the year to leave themselves handily placed for an immediate return to the Premiership after last year's relegation. Kevin Keegan has won the Second Division award after guiding Fulham to the top of the table during the month and securing two FA Cup giant-killings over Aston Villa and Southampton. Cambridge United's Roy McFarland has secured the Third Division title by taking his side to second in the table after remaining unbeaten in four League games, winning three and drawing one.
