> PBS, NPR (National Public Radio), and the arts are facing major
> cutbacks in funding. In spite of the efforts of each station to
reduce
> spendingcosts 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.
> Currently, taxes from the general public for PBS equal $1.12 per
person
> per year, and the National Endowment for the Arts equals $0.64 a year.
> A January 1995 CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll indicated that 76% of
> Americans wish to keep funding for PBS, third only to national
defense and law
> enforcement as the most valuable programs for federal funding.
>
> Each year, the Senate and House Appropriations committees each have 13
> subcommittees with jurisdiction over many programs and agencies. Each
> subcommittee passes its own appropriation bill. The goal each year is
> to have each bill signed by the beginning of the fiscal year, which is
> October 1. 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 if you
> believe in what we stand for. This list will be forwarded to the
> President of the United States, the Vice President of the United
> Sates, and Representative Newt Gingrich, who is the instigator of the
action
> to cut funding to these worthwhile programs. *If you happen to be the
> 150th, 200th, 250th, etc., signer of this petition, please forward a
> copy to: <[log in to unmask]
> This way we can keep track of the lists and organize them. Forward
> this to everyone you know, and help us to keep these programs alive.

> Thank you.
