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.

James Anderson has registered for this season’s Hundred draft, signalling his intent to continue his unexpected lap of honour in domestic cricket.
The 42-year-old ended his record-breaking international career with England with an emotional farewell at Lord’s last summer but has decided he still has more to offer and will turn out for Lancashire in the Rothesay County Championship this season.
He also put his name forward for the most recent Indian Premier League auction, despite playing his last competitive T20 match more than a decade ago. He was not ultimately picked up but has now opted to put his name in the hat for the Hundred, a format the fast bowler has only ever previously been involved with as a pundit.
By the time season five of the competition kicks off he will 43 and the eight teams must decide whether to invest in a player with huge name recognition and a glittering CV, or recruit younger talent with greater short-form experience.
