WASHINGTON, D.C. — The passage of the Rescissions Act of 2025 defunded the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) and left the organization without operating funds for the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2025. This led to a wind-down of CPB operations. Now, the CPB has revealed that it can no longer absorb costs and manage the Next Generation Warning System (NGWS) grant program for local public media stations.
