| Friend,
Congress has until this Friday — July 18 — to fulfill the White House’s formal request to claw back billions of dollars in already-approved funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, disaster-relief programs and essential international efforts like UNICEF.
The cruelty of this administration knows no bounds: These budget allocations support popular NPR and PBS programming, crucial emergency warning services and global health measures to reduce maternal- and infant-mortality rates.
This is a make-or-break week for the fate of public media in this country.
