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.

The second largest EuroMillions jackpot - £126 million - is up for grabs tonight.

A double-rollover means the largest pot since Colin and Chris Weir, from Largs in North Ayrshire, won £161 million last July, is on the table.

Last Friday six people won £266,505.80 each after matching five main numbers and one lucky star, but no-one matched all seven to claim the £106 million jackpot.

Tonight's estimated jackpot would propel a ticket-holder above a winner who banked £113,019,926 in October 2010, but decided not to go public.

Dave Dawes and wife Angela, from Wisbech, Cambridgeshire, currently sit third in the list after claiming £101,203,600 last October.
