Urge Congress: Save Our Stations
Public media has been defunded. Station closures have already been announced, and more than 115 stations remain at risk.
Without restored support, communities could lose access to local media, enriching educational children’s programming, local storytelling, and life-saving information. Urge your lawmakers to restore local public media station funding.
Ways To Take Action
Federal funding ensures that everyone—no matter where you live or what you earn—has access to local public radio and TV stations that provide educational, cultural, and local programming; trusted news; and life-saving emergency services. Here are three ways you can help protect your local stations today.
Call Congress: Restore Local Station Funding
Urge your Members of Congress to restore vital public media funding through the annual appropriations process.
