What the Candidates Think
Romney: Romney argues that the federal government should "stop doing things we don't need or can't afford." He aims to reduce funding for organizations such as the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
Obama: In a recent speech, Obama opposed Romney's plan to cut funding to public broadcasting, arguing that cutting these funds was not the right way to reduce the deficit. The federally approved funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting in the Fiscal Year of 2013 is $445,000,000.
