Congressional efforts to eliminate federal funding are likely to begin next week with the House's consideration of legislation to fund the federal government for the remainder of this fiscal year. The the Continuing Resolution (CR), approved during last fall's lame duck session, expires on March 4th. We expect the House Appropriations Committee will recommend a CR extension that includes a provision eliminating all funding for public broadcasting.
Please act today to send a clear message to Congress: Funding for public broadcasting is too important to eliminate.
There are so many great programs to watch on public broadcasting channels. Such programs include Frontline, Curious George cartoon, American Experience, Nova, Nature and so many others. It is such a shame that the House of Representatives wants to defund public broadcasting.
