This bill, called the No Propaganda Act, would stop all federal money from going to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB). It also tells CPB not to accept any federal funds after the law takes effect. Any unspent CPB funds from recent federal budgets would be taken back.

CPB is a nonprofit that helps fund local public TV and radio stations. Without federal funding, these stations could see cuts to programs and services that many families use for news, education, and kids’ shows.

Key points

Who is affected: CPB, local public TV and radio stations, and their viewers and listeners.
What changes: Federal funding to CPB ends; CPB is barred from accepting federal funds; unspent CPB money from recent budgets is rescinded.
When: After the law is enacted.
