NPR President and CEO Katherine Maher told CBS News' @NikolenDC  that cuts to federal funding for public broadcasting "could fundamentally alter public radio in America,” and have devastating consequences for local communities across the country. Maher called the potential impact a “tremendous tragedy,” warning that some stations could be forced off the air, licenses could be permanently lost, and coverage areas could shrink — threatening the universal access to news, music and cultural programming that public radio provides across the country.

On Thursday night, House Republicans approved a package to claw back $X billion in foreign and public broadcasting funding, sending it President Trump's desk.
