Executive Order blocks support for pbs
The order prohibits PBS and NPR from receiving any federal funding from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting - directly or indirectly, including through federal funds used to pay membership dues. This action threatens national services that local stations rely on to serve their communities - from emergent alert infrastructure to research-backed education resources - and undermines local station autonomy.
