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: Thanks to Mark Steel ("The Stalinists who sobered up and focused on Mr Blair", 9 November) I now realise that the over 50 per cent of British people who still support the current government are a bunch of raving Stalinist thugs wedded to the oppression of individual freedom, suppression of dissent and the committing of mass murder whenever the chance arises. I can't for the life of me work out how I managed to miss these obvious truths for so long.
