Congress DAYS away from vote to defund NPR and PBS

Donald Trump just doubled down on his vow to defund public media, sending Congress an official request to slash $1.1 billion in funding it ALREADY approved. This is an all hands on deck moment – the House is expected to vote NEXT WEEK.

If he succeeds, NPR, PBS and countless local stations could face devastating cuts. But we've got a chance to stop this attack, and we need your support now.

Our Revolution is mobilizing pressure in key battleground states – including Maine, where Senator Susan Collins has already expressed deep concerns about these cuts. We're ramping up quickly, hiring seasoned organizers on the ground to bolster our campaign and rally public support.

But rapid-response organizing in key states takes resources. Can you chip in right now to help fuel our fight to save public media from Trump's reckless attack?

Public media isn't just a collection of channels or stations – it's vital infrastructure for a vibrant democracy.

That's exactly why Trump and the far-right MAGA Republicans are so determined to silence it. In their eyes, anything that challenges their misinformation narrative needs to go – even if it means defunding trusted, independent journalism and educational programs for kids.

Right now, every vote matters – but especially in states like Maine, where Senator Collins has already raised concerns and has a proven track record of breaking ranks before, standing up to her party when pressure from constituents mounts. Our Revolution is laser-focused on activating the grassroots strength needed to influence key lawmakers to vote no, but we have to move now.

In 2017, when Trump first proposed slashing funding for public media, grassroots pressure was crucial to convincing Congress to reject severe cuts. Together, we protected public media from the chopping block then – and we can do it again.

But we can't seize this critical opportunity without your support today. Your donation immediately powers critical on-the-ground organizing capacity in Maine and other pivotal states, allowing Our Revolution to mobilize voters, hold targeted events, and confront lawmakers face-to-face when it matters most.

Together we can beat back this new attack on our public media – but we can’t do it alone. Can you chip in today to help us send key lawmakers like Senator Collins a powerful message they can't ignore?

When we organize, we win.
