The White House has submitted a rescissions package to Congress, asking them to eliminate over a billion dollars in funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which funds NPR and PBS.
This follows an executive order last month where President Donald Trump aimed to defund C-P-B, which is now facing lawsuits.
Here to tell us more about what this means for WBEZ is Chicago Public Media CEO Melissa Bell.
