| | | | Last week, Congress eliminated roughly $535 million in federal funding for PBS, NPR and other local news stations across the country. | Already, communities have rallied to protect these free, localized sources of journalism. These stations are necessary lifelines to take political action, prepare for natural disasters, and stay aware of other threats to our wellbeing. | Over the last three months, roughly 120,000 people have contributed about $20 million to the stations near them.
