A MARTINEZ, HOST:

Good morning. I'm A Martinez. All right, here's a new one. A hotel in Kentucky is offering amenities for those traveling with their houseplants. Starting next week, Lexington's Elwood will offer what it calls the world's first plant-friendly hotel experience. Plant parents can bring their leafy companions in a suite selected for plant-friendly natural light, and they can keep growing their family by leaving with a complimentary potted succulent. So now you can vacay with your pets, your plants. Why not just take your couch with you, too? 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.
