Republican extremists in Congress have spent months refusing to address the important issues facing our country, deciding to focus instead on the demands of the Tea Party.

Now they’re trying to defund Sesame Street, Curious George, and public news coverage.

Join Senate Democrats today in the fight against Republican extremism. Stand up for NPR and PBS before it’s too late.
