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.

Letter: After Dunblane: questions for the media and an answer to critics of gun clubs

Sir: I was disgusted to read in Colin Brown's report (16 March) that "senior Conservative Party figures were dismayed at John Major's joint visit with Tony Blair to the area [Dunblane]" and that "Conservative sources were furious because they felt it gave Mr Blair a political bonus". Can these Conservatives be named, so that they may be for ever vilified by decent British citizens of all parties?
