Last Thursday, DPM's General Manager Tom Interrante was on Capitol Hill representing Delaware Public Media. While there, he met U.S. Representative Sarah McBride. Conversations like these help ensure Delaware's public media remains engaged with the issues that impact public media, local journalism, and the communities we serve across the First State.

Listeners, readers, and supporters know our newsroom provides independent, fact-based coverage of Delaware politics and government. Just last night, we published Congresswoman McBride's official reelection announcement following her statewide "57 in 57" tour.

On June 15, 1776, Delaware chose its own path by separating from Pennsylvania and the British Crown. Today, we celebrate that same independent spirit. Delaware deserves journalism that isn’t filtered through someone else's priorities; it deserves reporting that starts with the belief that what happens here matters.

Delaware Public Media exists to be that independent voice. But with the permanent loss of $165,000 in annual federal funding, our financial stability relies entirely on community.

Please make a gift today to ensure Delaware continues to have its own trusted source of news. → https://www.delawarepublic.org/donate
