On NPR's Morning Edition last week, Nina Totenberg said that 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 of each station to reduce spending costs and streamline their
services, some government officials believe that the funding currently
going
to these programs is too large a portion of funding 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 these types of programs is
by
making our voices heard.

Please add your name to this list and forward it to friends who believe
in
what this stands for. This list will be forwarded to the President and
the
Vice President of the United States. This petition is being passed
around
the Internet. Please add your name to it so that funding can be
maintained
for NPR, PBS, & the NEA.

HOW TO SIGN & FORWARD: IT'S EASY:
Please keep this petition rolling. Do not reply to me. Please sign and
forward to others to sign.
If you prefer not to sign, please send to the E-mail address indicated
below.
DON'T WORRY ABOUT DUPLICATES.
This is being forwarded to several people at once to add their names to
the
petition.
It won't matter if many people receive the same list as the names are
being
managed. This is for anyone who thinks NPR/PBS is a worthwhile
expenditure
of $1.12/year of their taxes, a petition follows.

If you sign, please forward on to others. If not, please don't kill it -
send it to the Email address listed here:
wein2688_at_blue.univnorthco.edu

If you happen to be the 150th, 200th, 250th, etc., signer of this
petition, please forward a copy to:
wein2688_at_blue.univnorthco.edu
This way we can keep track of the lists and organize them

NOTE: It is preferable that you SELECT (highlight) the entirety of this
letter and then COPY it into a new outgoing message, rather than simply
forwarding it. In your new outgoing message, add your name to the bottom
of the list, then send it on. Or if option is available, do a SEND
AGAIN.
