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.

Nottinghamshire have signed Nathan Astle, the New Zealand Test batsman, to fill their overseas vacancy after Mohammad Zahid's contract was terminated last week due to a stress fracture of the back. The 25- year-old has been signed for the remainder of the season and will be registered in time to play against Northamptonshire today.

Floyd Reifer, the Barbados left-hand batsman, has won his first call- up by the West Indies for a one-day international against Sri Lanka. Reifer set a Red Stripe Cup record of 756 runs in 10 first-class matches for Barbados, including a career-best 200 against the Windward Islands and 151 against Guyana.
