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.

From Mr Sean Goodsir-Cullen

Sir: What is it that causes any member of the House of Lords to believe that making Raoul Wallenberg an honorary citizen ("Posthumous acclaim for a hero of the age", 16 February) is to confer on Wallenberg something of value when there is a member of the House of Commons doing things Wallenberg would find abominable ("Howard cuts refugees' right of appeal", 16 February)?

Yours faithfully,

SEAN GOODSIR-CULLEN

London, W6
