Federal Grants and the 2012 Presidential Election

Republican candidate, Mitt Romney, claimed that he would cut federal grants to organizations like PBS to reduce the federal budget deficit. He famously declared, "I like PBS, I love Big Bird. Actually like you, too. But I'm not going to – I'm not going to keep on spending money on things to borrow money from China to pay for. That's number one. "
