President-elect Trump, Speaker Mike Johnson, and Elon Musk are escalating their war on public media – threatening to slash funding for our Public Broadcasting Service (PBS). [1]

Para over two decades, Americans have consistently ranked PBS the most trustworthy network for news and public affairs. [2]

That’s because it delivers free local news, quality education, and fact-based independent journalism – without any corporate or political agendas, as it’s required by law to be objective. [3]

And that’s exactly why Trump and his cronies are targeting it – they know that an informed public with access to independent journalism is a powerful defense against the manipulation, disinformation, and propaganda they’re pushing.

Here’s the good news: Trump already tried – and failed – to cut funding for PBS during his first administration because gutting one of America’s most trusted public institutions isn’t a popular move.

With your help, we can stop this attack once again. If you agree we must protect independent media from Trump, Johnson, and Musk’s attacks, add your name to our Save PBS petition today.
