Subject: There is no Free TV
On NPR's Morning Edition last week, Nina Tottenberg said that if
the Supreme Court supports Congress, it is in effect the end of
the National
Public Radio (NPR), NEA and 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 worthwile.
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 per 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. 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 01. 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 of the United States
and the Vice President of the United States. This petition is
being passed around the Internet. Please add your name to it so
that afunding can be
maintained for the NEA, NPR and PBS.
HOW TO SIGN AND FORWARD; IT'S EASY: Please keep this petition
rolling forward. Do not reply to me. Please sign and forward to
others to sign. If you prefer not to sign, please send to the

This is being forwarded to several
people at once to add their names to the peittion. 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.
