Hi all,

The House of Representatives will vote tomorrow (Thursday) on a recissions
package bill that includes clawing back $1.1 billion in funding for the
Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB)

to take back money previously appropriated to public media by a bipartisan
Congress.

We have a new on-air announcement running tonight and tomorrow morning.
We’re expecting the House will pass the bill tomorrow and then it will move
to the Senate, where we’re a bit more optimistic.

We’ll have different language for an updated announcement to read once the
House votes tomorrow.

Thanks for reading our scripts,

Best,

Marisa
