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.At the top of the Premier Division Sheffield Steelers pulled two points ahead of Cardiff Devils - who have a game in hand - after the Devils lost a point in a 3-3 draw with Newcastle Warriors on Saturday, writes Steve Pinder.
The teams fighting it out for the First Division title, Manchester Storm and Blackburn Hawks, reinforced their claims to be included in the proposed Super League that now seems certain to go ahead next season.
