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.

Dan Jones has agreed to join Port Vale when his Salford contract expires at the end of the month.

The 26-year-old full-back spent last season on loan at Harrogate, making 25 appearances for the club.

Valiants boss Darrell Clarke told the club’s website: “I’ve always liked Dan to be honest. Things didn’t work out quite well with him at Salford, but he did well on loan at Harrogate and he knows the division well.

“Dan’s a great defender but he’s also good going forward and delivering crosses, he’ll give us options in a number of positions defensively. He’s a very good acquisition for us.”
