Save your show!!

The House will vote today on a bill that would bar federal funding for public broadcasting, such as National Public Radio, PBS shows like Sesame Street, NOVA, etc.

I am heavily reliant on news from NPR, PBS nightly news, and wonderful programs for my kids, science, documentaries about American life and history, various other educational programs and so on - all publicly funded and are now "under the knife". Please, I urge you to go to http://170millionamericans.net/ and urge your elected officials to vote NO on the budget cuts - to reach your specific elected reps, go to http://www.capwiz.com/170ma/home/.

We are already facing unprecedented budget cuts for public schools in the state of Florida; please do not let Congress public broadcasting as well. Education for our families and getting first rate global news is too crucial to lose! Thanks for your time and feel free to forward this to as many people as you like.
Sincerely, Maria
