Reba McEntire has some history with PBS, from "Austin City Limits" in 1987, to "South Pacific in Concert" from Carnegie Hall in 2006, to her appearance on "Sesame Street" in 2021. Now that there is a very real possibility federal funding for the network may be slashed, Reba has put out a plea to her fans for support. In a video clip shared by the PBS social media accounts, the singer says, "Hey, it’s Reba. From my appearances on Austin City Limits in 1987, to South Pacific in Concert from Carnegie Hall in 2006, I’ve had a long relationship with PBS. Now, PBS needs our help. In just a few short days, the Senate is going to vote on a bill that would remove federal funding from PBS....If you believe in PBS like I do, check out ProtectMyPublicMedia.org to find out how you can help. Let’s help keep PBS keep delivering the incredible programming that we all love so much." The funding now rests in the hands of the Senate, as the House of Representatives approved the package.
