DAVID GREENE, HOST:

Good morning. I'm David Greene. These days, it is perfectly acceptable to wear pajama pants while working from home. No, if you're about to ask me, don't. Anyway, it is generally assumed if you do have to run to the office, you'll put something over those pajama pants. Well, poor Dr. Vera Etches - she's Ottawa's medical officer of health. And after a very hectic morning, she made it all the way to city hall before realizing she forgot to put a skirt on under her raincoat. The busy doctor tweeted, yikes, time for another break. It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

Federal funding is gone.

Congress has eliminated all funding for public media.

That means $2.1 million per year that Connecticut Public relied on to deliver you news, information, and entertainment programs you enjoyed is gone.

The future of public media is in your hands.

All donations are appreciated, but we ask in this moment you consider starting a monthly gift as a Sustainer to help replace what’s been lost.
