Jason, Republicans are going after freedom of speech and shutting down Elmo.

Last week, they pushed through Trump's plan to cut ALL federal funding for PBS, NPR, and their local member stations — a sweeping blow to vital sources of public education and information.

Sign on and join me in standing up for public broadcasting and protecting the programs and stations millions of Americans rely on:

This new attack on freedom of speech will take away access to:

  • Educational television, including beloved programs like Elmo and Reading Rainbow, that my son and millions of children across the country rely on to learn and grow.
  • Emergency alerts and public safety warnings, essential services that have saved lives during recent natural disasters.
  • Local member stations, hitting communities in rural and underserved areas the hardest and, in many cases, forcing them to shut down.

But it doesn't end there.

From cheering on the silencing of voices like Stephen Colbert to targeting journalists and critics, Republicans are continuing their political persecution in the private sector against anyone who dares to criticize or call them out.

Freedom of speech is the cornerstone of a healthy democracy — one that we need to protect. Sign on if you agree, Jason.
