The House of Representatives has approved a White House request to claw back two years of previously approved funding for public media.

The recisions package now moves on to the Senate.

This move poses a serious threat to local stations and public media as we know it.

Please take a stand for public media today at goacpr.org. Thank you.

You're listening to the 1A podcast. I'm Jen White, and this is in case you missed it,

where we bring you some of the week's most important conversations you might have missed. Today we head to Minnesota, where a gunman shot and killed a prominent state lawmaker and her husband. Representative Melissa Hortman was a Democratic Farmer Labor Party leader in the Minnesota House. She and her husband, Mark, were killed by a man dressed as a

police officer in the early hours of Saturday at their home in a suburb of Minneapolis.

Another state representative, Democratic Senator John Hoffman, and his wife, Yvette, were also shot,

but are recovering. Minnesota Governor Tim Walls announced late Sunday that police had caught the main suspect in the case.

After two-day manhunt, two sleepless night, law enforcement have apprehended Vance Bolter.

That's 48 hours that law enforcement involved in a complex and dangerous manhunt.

Spent Father's Day away from their families to deliver justice

for Melissa and Mark Hortman and their children who spent this Father's Day alone.

To the law enforcement who stand here and the hundreds who are involved in this, the State

of Minnesota owes you a deep dread of gratitude.

Thank you.

of the law.
