A proposal to rescind $1.1 billion in public media funding has already passed the House and is now heading to the Senate. If approved, this measure would have devastating consequences for local public media stations that provide trusted news, educational programming, and cultural content to millions of Americans. Now is the time to act. We urge you to contact your Senators and ask them to vote NO on this proposal. Your voice can help protect the future of public media.

Take Action and Spread the Word

You can make a difference by speaking out on social media and encouraging your friends and family to do the same. Tag @mypublicmedia on Instagram and X, and @ProtectMyPublicMedia on Facebook. Be sure to include the hashtag #ProtectMyPublicMedia.
