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.

British Airways could be forced to pay compensation of millions of pounds to more than 200 pilots sacked two years ago.

An industrial tribunal yesterday ruled it unfairly dismissed the former Dan-Air employees when it took over the smaller company.

The pilots, who rejected up to £9,000 from BA, must wait until Thursday to discover the exact awards.
