Congress is moving to defund NPR and PBS — not to save money, but to silence them.
Public media is one of the last bastions of truth, fact-based reporting, and civic literacy.

Today, our Local 31 officers took to Capitol Hill to advocate for public media funding! Great support from SEIU home healthcare aides & Texas advocates.
Together, we stand strong! #DefendPBS #PublicMedia #DefendNPR
Cutting NPR & PBS funding hurts rural communities, public safety, and education. These aren’t partisan luxuries—they’re essential services. I stand against this push to defund public media. We need more trusted info, not less. #SavePublicMedia #DefendNPR #DefendPBS
NPR & PBS sue Trump over funding cuts, citing First Amendment violations. When public media is threatened for truth-telling, it's not just a lawsuit—it's a battle for democracy. #DefendNPR
An app notification from public radio news network NPR, headlined, "Defend public media now". Partial body reads: "President Trump issued an executive order seeking to block all federal funding to NOR. We need your su..." It cuts off what is presumably "support". An apt allegory to what's currently happening to public media.
@npr.org I know what you mean, and am a sustainer, but good grief did I misread that headline. #DefendNPR #DefendPublicMedia

Authoritarians always start by silencing public education and news. Trump’s just mad PBS never called him “sir.”

Only fascists are scared of books, teachers, and puppets. Trump wants you stupid, angry, and glued to Fox News.

Trump’s going after NPR and PBS because Elmo’s got a bigger vocabulary than him and Big Bird has more integrity.

Imagine being so weak you have to wage war on Big Bird, tote bags, and 3-minute news segments. Trump’s scared of anything he can’t bankrupt or brainwash.

NPR and PBS aren’t “liberal propaganda”—they’re public goods.
This latest GOP crusade to defund them is about power, not budget. When facts become inconvenient, some folks try to defund the facts.
We need public media more than ever.

#PresidentTrump’s administration launched an investigation into #PBS and #NPR, questioning their federal funding. #FCCChairmanBrendanCarr claims their underwriting may violate regulations. Critics call it an attack on public media. #FreePress #MediaFreedom #DefendNPR #PBSFunding

Slashing funding for public media would be a disservice to those who rely on its journalism, especially those with limited access to other news sources. Arguments to defund NPR ignores the vital role its journalism plays in communities. #SupportPublicMedia #pubmedia #DefendNPR
