The Trump administration's proposed $1.1 billion funding cut to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting would cripple local NPR and PBS stations nationwide. Public broadcasting provides essential local news coverage, emergency information, and educational programming that benefits all Americans, especially in rural and underserved areas. Over 98% of the population relies on the over 1,000 public radio stations for trusted journalism and programming. While NPR and PBS funding accounts for just a minuscule fraction of the federal budget, it is vital to maintaining a free press and ensuring access to factual reporting. I urge you to reject these harmful cuts and uphold funding for public media to preserve this invaluable public service.
