Interesting point about the VOA Bill. A bit sad.
Anyway, here's another 1530 VOA sign-off announcement - this recording from yesterday (16 JAN at 2200 UTC / 5 p.m. EST):

This should be a piece of cake at this time along the US and Canada East Coast. So "go get 'em."

I get a kick out of those anmts. The guy who recorded them LONG ago is no longer with us - Frank Oliver. The U. S. Information Service is long gone as are 'cultural centers.' And the zip on the address given - 20547 - hasn't been used in decades.
Oh well, it's not like anybody's actually listening ... except us DXers. ;-)
