Sign the petition against cuts to federal funding of public media
American Public Media’s music, news, and information services are critical to Americans of all ages and backgrounds. The White House is preparing a rescission package that will eliminate $1.1 billion and defund the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB). The CPB supports 1,300 local public media stations across the country, many of which broadcast APM programs such as Marketplace, The Splendid Table, and Performance Today and those we distribute like The Daily from the New York Times and the BBC World Service.
Now is the time to use your voice to oppose these cuts to public media. The entire public media network will be weaker without federal funding. 
Sign the petition to oppose the White House proposal to defund the CPB and we will deliver the petition to the White House.
Take a stand for the public media you rely on.
No cuts to federal funding for public media
I oppose the proposed actions to defund the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. The continued federal funding of public media, including American Public Media, is important to me. APM is a vital resource providing music and news to Americans of all ages and backgrounds. Federal funding for public media must be continued.
