  Blackburn's bill is dubbed the Free Americans from Ideological Reporting (FAIR) Act and singles out NPR and PBS as perpetrators.

Senator Marsha Blackburn introduced the "Stop Funding Our Adversaries Act" on June 11, 2025, aiming to prohibit federal funding to news organizations that exhibit political bias, following reports that taxpayer money was used to fund media outlets like Al Jazeera and Xinhua, which are linked to adversarial governments.

Blackburn emphasized the importance of maintaining the integrity of American journalism and preventing the financing of biased news that could influence public opinion against U.S. policies.
