Republicans just stripped funding for public broadcasting, and the consequences are already hitting close to home.

Wisconsin’s only Native American radio station is on the chopping block.

These cuts would silence critical local voices, eliminate access to trusted news and emergency alerts, and undermine the essential role public media plays in our democracy.

Let’s be clear: this is an attack on truth, representation, and public accountability.

If you also believe that public media is worth protecting — and Americans deserve free access to trusted news and emergency alerts — then please, add your name now to stand up to Republicans’ attacks on public media.

Public media has long been a bipartisan cornerstone of civic life, trusted by millions for over 50 years. But today’s Republican leaders are choosing partisan politics over public service. Their decision to gut funding for NPR, PBS, and thousands of local stations will hit hardest in the communities that need them most.

Because of these devastating cuts, The Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which helps fund thousands of local NPR and PBS stations, is now being forced to consider shutting down critical operations.

If you agree that these cuts are unacceptable, will you take a moment to make your voice heard by signing on to our petition?

Thanks for standing with us,

WisDems
