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: Your leading article on 22 April "A manifesto for the monarchy" suggest that the Prince of Wales should follow the example of the Princess Royal's "impressive, determined charity work".

Surely he is doing this already, through the Prince's Trust and a host of other concerns to which he gives his unstinting support. Last year Prince Charles carried out over 600 engagements, many of them relating to charitable causes. The Prince's good work both at home and aboard receives very little publicity, while every opportunity is taken to show him in a bad light.
