Donald Trump and his allies are ramping up their war on public media. They’re threatening to cut funding for PBS and NPR, launching politically motivated investigations, and even forcing PBS to shut down its diversity and inclusion office.
Why? Because independent, fact-based journalism doesn’t serve Trump’s agenda.
The FCC, now stacked with Trump loyalists, is targeting NPR and PBS, looking for excuses to justify gutting their funding. And Trump’s allies in Congress are eager to go along, calling public media “biased” as they push to silence it.
PBS and NPR provide trusted news, educational programming, and cultural content to millions of Americans. If Trump succeeds, we lose one of the last remaining sources of independent public media.
Congress must act. Sign the petition now to demand they protect PBS and NPR from Trump’s attacks.
A free press is the foundation of democracy. We won’t let Trump destroy it.
