Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty is a world treasure. For 75-years, this storied organization has made the world safer. Audiences view us as lifelines to the free world. Attempts to defund Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty would be a massive gift to America's enemies, many of whom are already celebrating

The only reason millions of people living in authoritarian countries fell in love with America in the 80s was because of RFE/RL and VoA. They were a lifeline to help survive the total darkness of state propaganda, and people were grateful that someone cared to offer it to them.

There’s no acknowledgment from USAGM of the profoundly dedicated work of Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty journalists likedepicted here. Our focus is on countries where free media is no longer readily available. If you don’t know us it’s probably because you live in freedom. Be real about what’s at stake
