"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."

The Independent covers reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech with reporters on the ground and produces documentaries such as 'The A Word' highlighting American women fighting for reproductive rights. Donations fund journalists to report from both sides and allow the outlet to avoid paywalls, keeping reporting free for all while relying on contributions from those who can afford it. Sir Keir Starmer warned Roman Abramovich to transfer the 2.5bn from the sale of Chelsea FC to humanitarian causes for Ukraine and said a licence has been issued to allow the transfer. The government stated it is prepared to enforce the commitment through the courts to ensure funds reach those affected by Putin's invasion. Abramovich was forced to sell Chelsea because of his links to Vladimir Putin and had pledged to donate the proceeds to the people of Ukraine.
