I urge you to vote against the rescissions package now under Senate review, which would claw back $1.1 billion in previously approved federal funding for public media – and to support full public media funding in the Fiscal Year 2026 Public media represents one of the nation’s most efficient public-private partnerships: for every federal dollar, stations raise about seven more. Rescinding this support would do real and lasting damage – particularly to stations in rural, remote, and tribal areas where it may be the only local media. Please please vote NO!
