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.

Halifax, one of 12 clubs who will make up the new Super League, have launched a pounds 100,000 appeal to finance buying new players and urgent ground safety work. A public meeting will be held on Sunday to discuss ways of reaching the cash target before the start of the shortened final season on 20 August.

Ian Watson, the Salford scrum-half, has been drafted into the Wales squad for their two-match tour of the United States which starts next week, after Warrington's Kevin Ellis and Keighley's Andy Eyres both withdrew from the party.
