> In NPR Morning Edition, Nina Totenberg said that if
>the Supreme Court
> supports Congress, it is in effect the end of NEA
>(National Endowment for
> the Arts).This situation creates great concerns
>about Congressional funding
> for
> creative arts in America, since NEA provides major
>support for NPR (National
> Public Radio) & PBS (Public Broadcasting System),
>and numerous other
> creative and performing arts. If NEA is lost or
>weakened, our lives are
> similarly diminished.
> 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.
> Currently, taxes from the general public for PBS
>equal $1.12 per person per
> year, and the National Endowment for the Arts equals
>$.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

>year, which is October
> 1.
> The only way that our representatives can be aware
>of the base of support

>by making our voices

> Please add your name to this list and forward it to
>friends who believe in

>forwarded to the President
> of the United States, the Vice President of the
>United States, and the
> Speaker Of The House, the office of which has in the
>past been
> the instigator of the action to cut funding to these
>worthwhile programs.
> This petition is being passed around the Internet.
>Please add your name to
> it so that funding can be maintained for the NEA,
>NPR & PBS.
> 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
