The U.S. House voted Thursday on a rescission bill to claw back money for foreign aid programs, along with the next two years of funding for the public media system. The measure now goes to the Senate.

President Trump is asking lawmakers to claw back the $1.1 billion in federal subsidies for public broadcasting that Congress approved earlier this year. His request also includes cuts to foreign aid.

Nearly $13 million in total state and federal public funding accounts for about 30% of the combined budgets of Indiana’s public media stations, according to a WFYI analysis of budget and funding data.

In an executive order, President Trump directs the Corporation for Public Broadcasting to stop funding NPR and PBS. They say he can't. PBS chief Paula Kerger calls it "blatantly unlawful".

WFYI, the Indianapolis NPR and PBS affiliate, announced a reorganization that eliminated one position and proposed eliminating two others in its marketing and radio operations departments. It also announced that a hiring freeze on most vacancies would remain in effect.
