One hundred and seventy million Americans are in favor of funding for public broadcasting. In spite of this, the House of Representatives recently voted to eliminate funding for public broadcasting; the bill now goes to the Senate where the Democrats have a slight majority, which in theory will preserve this vital service. Let's not leave that to chance.
Public Broadcasting is Too Important to Eliminate
"This week Congress passed, and President Obama signed into law a two-week spending bill to prevent a government shutdown. We are pleased that this short-term measure does not cut funding for public broadcasting, but now the real negotiations for long-term funding are happening behind the scenes and it is likely that public broadcasting funding will be targeted for elimination in the final budget bill if negotiators don’t hear from supporters in overwhelming numbers."
