WASHINGTON — Yesterday, Congressman Ronny Jackson (TX-13) reintroduced the No Partisan Radio and Partisan Broadcasting Services Act or the NPR and PBS Act to eliminate all federal funding for both National Public Radio (NPR) and the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS).

“For decades, radical Democrats have funneled taxpayer dollars to NPR and PBS under the guise of 'serving the public,' despite both organizations abandoning their founding missions to provide non-biased content and instead promoting the same radical-left propaganda as any other fake news outlet,” said Rep. Ronny Jackson. “If these organizations want to push partisan agendas, they do not deserve another dime of federal support.”

“I’m proud to cosponsor Ronny Jackson’s bill to defund PBS and NPR,” said DOGE Subcommittee Chairwoman Marjorie Taylor Greene. “As my DOGE subcommittee hearing showed, these taxpayer-funded PR arms of the Democrat Party don’t deserve the American people’s hard-earned money. NPR and PBS hate President Trump, his supporters, and the majority of Americans who sent us a mandate in 2024. They can hate us on their own dime.”

Cosponsors include DOGE Subcommittee Chairwoman Marjorie Taylor Greene (GA-14) and Representatives Jodey Arrington (TX-19), Andy Biggs (AZ-05), Tim Burchett (TN-02), Michael Cloud (TX-27), Mike Collins (GA-10), Neal Dunn (FL-02), Paul Gosar (AZ-09), Troy Nehls (TX-22), Chip Roy (TX-21), Keith Self (TX-03), and Randy Weber (TX-14).
