David Brancaccio: 众议院即将对一项法案进行投票,该法案旨在正式确定白宫对已由国会批准的资金进行削减的计划。这项法案的范围广泛,不仅影响到公共广播事业,还涉及到其他多个领域。我对此表示关注,因为这些削减可能会对相关领域的发展产生不利影响。作为一名新闻工作者,我深知公共广播在信息传播和社会教育中的重要作用,削减其资金可能会影响到公众获取高质量信息的机会。此外,对外援助的削减也可能会对国际合作和全球发展产生负面影响。因此,我希望国会议员们在投票时能够充分考虑这些因素,做出明智的决定。 Nancy Marshall-Genzer: 该法案的核心内容是从国会先前批准的预算中撤回超过90亿美元的资金。其中,对公共广播公司(PBS)和公共广播电台的联邦资金削减总额约为10亿美元,这无疑会对这些机构的运营带来直接冲击。更广泛的影响在于,大部分削减将针对对外援助支出,这可能包括对生殖健康和LGBTQ群体支持等关键领域的资金。这些削减不仅关乎资金本身,更关乎我们对全球责任的承担以及对弱势群体的支持。我对此深感担忧,并希望国会能够重新审视这些削减计划,确保我们能够继续履行作为国际社会一员的责任。

Many labor unions were once wary of immigrants, viewing them as low-cost competitors for union jobs. Now, changing demographics and common interests have resulted in unions playing a more prominent role in immigrant workforces and communities. We'll hear more. Plus, a bill before the House would claw back more than $9 billion in funding, and a United Nations report shows nearly 138 million children are working worldwide.
