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.

DAVID HORAY, 24, serving three years at Walton prison, Liverpool, for burglary and aggravated vehicle taking, successfully sued the Home Office at the county court after suffering face injuries in a football game. After slipping on an Astroturf pitch and colliding with a lighting pole he claimed he should have had special boots, not plimsolls, and the pole should have been padded. Damages will be assessed after his release.
