Defund Government-Sponsored Propaganda Act

This bill enacts a comprehensive prohibition on all direct and indirect federal funding for the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) and National Public Radio (NPR) following its enactment. This includes preventing public broadcast stations from utilizing federal funds to pay dues to or purchase programming from these organizations. For fiscal years 2025, 2026, and 2027, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting is mandated to transfer an amount equal to the funds that would have been made available to PBS and NPR to an account established for reducing the public debt . This ensures that federal allocations previously intended for these entities are instead directed towards national debt reduction. The prohibition also extends to any successor organizations to PBS or NPR.
