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.

Danny Romero, the International Federation's flyweight champion, will defend his title against fellow American Mark Johnson on 2 February in New Mexico. The promoter, Brad Carmel, said the bout was arranged after the Welshman, Robbie Regan, declined to fight Romero for financial reasons. By knocking out Tunisia's Ferid Ben Jeddou on 16 December, Regan won the interim title set up while Romero was injured and earned a shot at Romero himself.
