Hi, it's John from C-SPAN. Imagine 45 years ago, when there were just a handful of television networks, C-SPAN first went on the air, bringing

an unfiltered view of government directly to America's living rooms. No spin, no commentary,

just pure democracy in action. And it's Jenae from C-SPAN. It was a bold experiment. We finally

had a front-row seat to Congress, the White House, and the campaign trail, all without government funding.

As we celebrate 45 years and a legacy of unfiltered access, we ask for your support of a donation in honor of over four decades of service.

Your gift, no matter how big or small, will help maintain this vital resource for access to the democratic process.

And you can help ensure another 45 years of witnessing history unfold and empowering citizens

to be informed and engaged in the political process. Visit c-span.org slash donate today

and join our 45th anniversary campaign. Thanks for supporting C-SPAN, your unfiltered view of government.

Visit c-span.org slash donate today to make your gift of support.

Thanks.
