                 INTENT TO OFFER AN AMENDMENT ON H.R. 1

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. EARL BLUMENAUER

                               of oregon

                    in the house of representatives

                       Monday, February 14, 2011

  Mr. BLUMENAUER. Mr. Speaker, at the appropriate tin during the debate 
on H.R. 1, the Full Year Continuing Appropriations Act, I plan to offer 
the following amendment to amend Page 303 of H.R. 1 by striking lines 3 
through 9 and inserting the attached language.
  This amendment would fully restore all funding to the Corporation for 
Public Broadcasting (CPB) that H.R. 1 aims to eliminate. A portion of 
this funding would provide CPB with the funds necessary to assist with 
the transition to digital broadcasting, provide for the costly 
infrastructure and maintenance that connects rural to urban, and assist 
with radio interconnection.
