BREAKING: House Passes DOGE Cuts to NPR, PBS, and USAID – Four Republicans Vote No

The House of Representatives passed the $9.4 billion rescissions package on Thursday to cut wasteful discretionary spending on NPR, PBS, and USAID. 

The House advanced the legislation to a final floor vote on Wednesday, The Gateway Pundit reported.

JUST IN: House Votes to Advance DOGE Cuts to NPR, PBS, and USAID – Final Floor Vote Expected This Week

This includes cuts to National Public Radio (NPR), Public Broadcasting Service (PBS), and the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). $8.3 billion is set to be cut from the USAID, the far left agency that the Trump Administration has accused of funding foreign programs that do little to advance American interests.

The President ordered NPR and PBS to be defunded last month. The recissions package cuts over $1 billion from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB).

As The Gateway Pundit reported, President Trump signed the “Ending Taxpayer Subsidization of Biased Media” executive order, which directs the CPB Board of Directors to “cease Federal funding for NPR and PBS.”

The House voted 214-212 to pass the spending cuts.

Four republicans voted against these cuts that the President has called for. Mark Amodei (R-NV), Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA), Nicole Malliotakis (R-NY), and Mike Turner (R-OH) were all nay votes.

Rep. Eli Crane (R-AZ) outlined the cuts on X, including:

• Politically biased public media systems that are subsidized through the corporation for public broadcasting
• Foreign assistance programs, global censorship campaigns, radical climate policies, election meddling efforts, and DEI promotion abroad
• Globalist institutions with ties to hostile nations that fauled to mitigate COVID-19 and other health crises

“This must be a first step, not a celebration,” he said, calling on Americans to “push your representatives for more cuts.”
