| Friend,
ICYMI: Earlier this month, the House voted to defund NPR and PBS. Lawmakers caved — largely along party lines — to Trump’s request to claw back $1.1 billion in already-approved funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which supports popular and essential public-media stations across the country.
Meanwhile, militarized attacks against protesters and journalists in Los Angeles provided further proof of an escalating Trump administration effort to silence dissent and crush free speech by any means necessary.
Free Press Action has been on the ground, mobilizing supporters to join us at “No Kings” rallies nationwide and calling out these authoritarian tactics. And our voices — yours included — are needed now more than ever! With the fight to save public media moving to the Senate — and attacks on free speech intensifying — we urgently need 100 supporters to chip in by midnight on June 30 to fund our urgent organizing and policy work. Can we count on your support with a first-time donation today? DONATE NOW This fight isn't just about one vote for public media or one protest. It’s about whether we can save our democracy. As public-media outlets and journalists face intimidation — and protesters defending immigrant communities, racial justice, reproductive freedom and LGBTQIA+ rights face state-sanctioned violence — we must stand united.
Free Press Action is one of the only organizations fighting at this intersection: safeguarding journalism, protecting public media and standing up to authoritarian abuses. Together, we’ve made a difference before. Let’s do it again.
Your support today ensures we can continue standing up against authoritarian abuses — and defend democracy at every turn. Support our necessary work by midnight on June 30 with your very first donation.
Thank you for your support,
Heather and all of us at Free Press Action
P.S. Public media is under threat, and protesters are facing violence and intimidation. We have until midnight on June 30 to reach our 100-donation goal. Give now and help stop the attacks on free speech and a free press. |
