Facebook: Congressman Doug Lamborn from Colorado is pushing a letter and legislation to eliminate funding for public broadcasting. This would cut unparalleled in-depth news, educational shows for all ages, and local programming. These are programs that are important to us all. More than 170 Million Americans access public media every month! Protect your local station: Join us at 170 Million Americans for Public Broadcasting and call your Representative today and ask them to support public broadcasting!
Please call your Representative today and ask them to support public broadcasting and urge them NOT to sign Congressman Lamborn’s Letter and NOT to co-sponsor H.R. 68.
