  • Congress has eliminated federal funding for public media. It is heartbreaking that after decades of outstanding public service by more than 1,000 public media stations in all corners of the United States, the federal investment in American communities has disappeared.

    Federal funding represented $4.3 million of KPBS’ annual budget. We are fortunate to be in a strong financial position that will allow us to keep serving San Diego, but the long-term loss of funding will negatively impact us and influence the plans we have for the future.

    As your local public media station, KPBS is an essential, front-line, public service accountable to you. Our goal is to empower San Diegans to make informed decisions to build, celebrate and grow as individuals, families and communities. We do this by providing trusted, balanced and insightful news, and educational and entertaining stories and events that reflect the voices and aspirations unique to our region. To do this, we need the support of our community more than ever. We will make it through this challenge because of you.

    We are defunded not defeated.

  • The Town Hall CA48 Deserves — Even If Darrell Issa Won’t Show Up Join Indivisible North County San Diego and our powerful coalition of regional grassroots groups for a dynamic, people-powered congressional town hall—the kind Representative Darrell Issa refuses to hold. In 2025, many Republican House members—including Issa—are dodging public accountability. They’re avoiding traditional town halls because they don’t want to answer tough questions about their voting records, their ties to extremist policies, and their refusal to represent the will of their constituents. But we believe democracy demands better. That’s why Rep. Sara Jacobs (CA-51) is stepping up and standing in. In a bold act of solidarity, she’s agreed to take questions from CA48 residents, speak directly to the issues impacting our community, and help strategize ways we can pressure Darrell Issa to do his job—or get out of the way. Have something to say? Submit your questions in advance for Rep. Jacobs. Submit your questions here. Want to make change? Show up, speak out, and stand together. This event will fill up fast. Reserve your spot today—because representation isn’t optional.
