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.As the second stage reaches a conclusion it would appear that Britain's David Millar is in the leading group going into the closing stages, with 15km, and one steep climb, to go.
Reports state that none of the riders that finished ahead of him yesterday and in the group, which as Millar dinished fourth yesterday, would make him the virtual leader of the race.
With the carnage of yesterday's stage Team Sky will be looking to keep Chris Froome safe.
Marcel Kittel, the holder of the yellow jersey after yesterday is at least six minutes off the pace of the leading group.
