Cut backs in Arts, NPR, PBS


The current Administration is looking to get rid of NPR, the National Endowments and PBS.

Please read and forward to your e-mail rolodex. Even if you disagree with the politics - a voice for both sides must exist and the arts survive.

On NPR's Morning Edition, Nina Totenberg said if the Supreme Court supports Congress, it is in effect the end of the National Public Radio (NPR), NEA &the Public Broadcasting System (PBS). PBS, NPR and the arts are facing major cutbacks in funding. In spite of the efforts to reduce costs and streamline services, government officials believe that the funding currently going to these programs is too large for something which is seen as not worthwhile. The only way that our representatives can be aware of the base of support for PBS and funding for such programs i! s by making our voices heard.

Please add your name to this petition and forward it to friends who believe in what this stands for. This is for anyone who thinks NPR/PBS is a worthwhile expenditure of $1.12/year of their taxes. This petition is being passed around the Internet and will be forwarded to the President and the Vice President of the United States. Please add your name to it so funding can be maintained for NPR, PBS, & the NEA.

If you prefer not to sign, please don't kill it. Send it to the Email address listed here: wein2688@blue.univnorthco.edu
