AI Summary:
NPR and three of its local stations filed a lawsuit against United States President Donald Trump. The lawsuit argues that Trump’s executive order to slash public subsidies to PBS and NPR violates the First Amendment of the US Constitution. Trump issued the executive order earlier this month. PBS and NPR get part of their funding from federal grants: 17 percent and 2 percent, respectively. The Order aims to punish NPR for the content of news and other programming the President dislikes. It interferes with NPR’s and the Local Member Stations’ freedom of expressive association and editorial discretion.
