Reverse Funding Cuts Faced By Our Local Community TV Studio 

Support The CAP Act, HR-1746 

TBNK Services & Facilities Soon Face Large Funding Cuts Due to Changes Made By Federal & State Bureaucrats, If The CAP Act Is Not Passed

The Community Access Preservation (CAP) Act, HR-1746, would address the immediate issues facing PEG channels across the country by:

• Allowing PEG fees to be used for any PEG-related purposes – not restricted to capital only;  
• Requiring PEG channels to be carried in the same manner as local broadcast channels;  
• Requiring the FCC to study the effect state video franchise laws have had on PEG channels,  
• and requiring operators to provide the greater of the support required under recent state laws, or the support historically provided for PEG before new state laws; and  
• Making cable television-related laws and regulations applicable to all landline video providers.
