Sens. Warner and Kaine oppose Republican efforts to defund the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, impacting numerous public media stations.
Quiver AI Summary
U.S. Senators Mark R. Warner and Tim Kaine criticized congressional Republicans for attempting to defund public media and rescind over $1.07 billion designated for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, including $100 million for Virginia. This proposed budget cut could affect more than 1,500 public radio and TV stations, many serving rural areas.
Warner and Kaine expressed concern that these efforts undermine public media, which they assert provides vital news and emergency alerts, especially in rural communities. They emphasized the importance of preserving this funding, reflecting bipartisan support from Congress since the Corporation's establishment in 1967.
The House of Representatives has already passed the legislation, which is currently under consideration by the Senate. The senators plan to oppose the proposed rescissions package that aligns with President Trump's funding cancellation requests.
