Tell Congress to OPPOSE funding cuts to NPR and PBS!
Petition to Congress:
We urge you to reject proposals to cut funding for PBS and NPR.
The House GOP introduced a bill this week to gut PBS and NPR’s funding.1
It’s yet another attack against the public broadcasters — part of Elon Musk, Donald Trump, and Marjorie Taylor Greene’s coordinated campaign to destroy PBS and NPR.
If Musk and Trump succeed, they’ll be able to further consolidate the flow of news through their preferred channels that spew right-wing disinformation. Public broadcasters are massively popular across partisan lines, so we have a chance to pressure Congress to stand by their constituents.
Sign the petition: Tell Congress to OPPOSE funding cuts to NPR and PBS.
The House GOP bill follows Trump admin investigations into the public broadcasters, Musk and Greene making baseless accusations against the public broadcasters for “bias and propaganda,” Greene demanding the heads of NPR and PBS testify in front of Congress, and Trump taking an aggressive approach to ALL reliable media outlets.2,3
Musk’s DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) has been reckless in taking down any of Musk’s enemies. NPR and PBS will be no different unless Congress stops this dangerous funding bill.
Sign the petition: Save PBS and NPR from Trump, Musk, and Greene’s campaign to slash critical funding from public media.
