Description:

On Tuesday, the Trump administration formally asked Congress to take back the money it had set aside for all public broadcasters for the next two years. This action, known as a “recission request” has to be approved by a majority in the U.S. House and Senate in the next 45 days in order for it to become law. If it passes both chambers, it would have an effect on the budget of The Public’s Radio and Rhode Island PBS. Our political reporter, Ian Donnis spoke with our CEO Pam Johnston about what this could mean.
