Summary

Public Telecommunications Act of 1991 - Amends the Communications Act of 1934 to authorize appropriations for the public telecommunications facilities program for FY 1992 through 1994 and for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) for FY 1994 through 1996. Reduces from ten to nine the number of CPB board members, lengthens the term of each member from five to six years, and staggers the terms of the members. Requires CPB, in recognition of the importance of educational programs and services and the expansion of public radio services to unserved and underserved audiences, to prepare and submit to the Congress an annual report for FY 1994 through 1996 on its activities and expenditures relating to those programs and services.
