A message from OPB President and CEO Rachel Smolkin

The article from OPB's pressroom, titled "President's Update: Federal Funding for Public Media is at Extreme Risk," discusses the critical situation regarding the potential loss of federal funding for public media. President and CEO Steve Bass highlights that the proposed federal budget for 2024 completely eliminates funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB), which is vital for stations like OPB. This cut would severely impact the ability of public media to provide essential services such as emergency alerts, educational programming, and local journalism. Bass emphasizes the importance of public support and advocacy to protect this funding, urging the community to contact their congressional representatives to voice their support for continued federal investment in public media.
