Defund NPR Act

HR 1595, the Defund NPR Act, would block all federal funding for National Public Radio (NPR) and any successor organization after the bill's enactment. It amends the Communications Act of 1934 to prohibit direct or indirect federal funds from supporting NPR, including through public broadcast stations using federal money for programming or dues. This would end federal financial support for NPR's operations, affecting the organization directly but not impacting other public broadcasting entities. The bill specifically targets NPR's funding stream without altering other public broadcasting rules.
