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.

Your support makes all the difference.

Sir: I must strongly protest at the publication of your photograph of the fatally-wounded British soldier being brought out from Gorazde (16 April). I am amazed that the family of this young man should be subjected to seeing this devastating picture - compounded by the fact that he later died. How many of your staff could bear to witness such a picture of a loved one spread in lurid detail and colour across your front page?

Yours faithfully,

SUSAN EMERY
