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.DAVID GRAVENEY has been re-appointed as England's chairman of selectors for a further two years. Graveney, whose initial two-year tenure ends on 31 August, will now remain in the post until the end of the 2001 season.
The former Gloucestershire, Somerset and Durham left-arm spinner has been a selector since 1995 and became chairman of selectors in 1997.
Welcoming the decision to re-appoint him, made at a recent England Management Advisory Committee meeting, Graveney said: "I'm delighted that I have been given the opportunity to continue as chairman of selectors after two hugely enjoyable and challenging years in the role. I believe we are making real progress as an international side and I'm looking forward to playing my part in ensuring we continue with that progress over the months and years that follow."
Simon Pack, the England and Wales Cricket Board's International Teams director, said: "David has shown great energy and diplomacy over the last two years."
