In an interview with Newsmax's "Sunday Agenda," U.S. Sen. Katie Britt (R-Montgomery) applauded the funding cuts to public broadcasting after President Donald Trump signed the rescissions package into law.
Echoing her fellow U.S. Senator from Alabama, Britt emphasized the importance for the likes of PBS and NPR to just give the news, adding she was "sick of the left pushing their agenda into every crevice of America."
"Americans want their news," Britt said on Sunday. "They want them to call balls and strikes, particularly if they're investing in it. That's not what they have been doing ... it's a new day. We are sick of the left pushing their agenda into every crevice of America. We're pulling that back and getting back to what people intended."
She described the rescissions bill passage as "promises made, promises kept" by President Donald Trump.
"We understand where we are as a nation. $9 billion is significant," Britt outlined. "But when you look at this overall, we're $37 trillion in debt, so we're just getting started at creating accountability for the American people. But finally, we are doing it."
