The Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) announced it is winding down operations as

a result of President Trump’s major funding cuts. The CPB attributed its closure to the $9 billion rescissions package that passed on July 24, which significantly slashes funding for public broadcasting, including PBS and NPR, which are expected to be largely impacted by CBP’s closure. The majority of staff positions will be eliminated by Sept. 30, and a small transition team will remain through January 2026, CPB announced in a press release.
