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.

Sheffield Sharks and the Leopards, who meet in next weekend's National Cup Final, have to fit in three more games each before then as the demands of the Budweiser League and League Trophy gather pace, writes Richard Taylor.

Leopards must bounce back from a 17-point defeat against London Towers tonight when they face Thames Valley Tigers, who want the former Derby and Hemel American, Jason Siemon.

Sheffield are away at Leicester City Riders, whose coach, Bob Donewald, has stripped their veteran guard Gene Waldron of the captaincy after the club ended a run of seven defeats with victory at Crystal Palace.
