save public television and radio

Friends,

A dear neighbor friend of mine is a life-long public television employee. In the 14 years that I have known him, daily, five days a week, including on weekends, he has risen at 4am to start up our state's public TV station and its programs for the day.  

Last week, at the end of a conversation about what's going on in government, he said to me, "Republican no more!"

I don't know what party he WILL join ;)

...but in the meantime he asked me to sign and then forward along the attached petition to save public television and radio:

Please join this group to help save our jobs….Republicans are trying to eliminate funding for CPB: http://170millionamericans.com

Please sign the petition and forward to your lists.

This vote is planned for mid week next week in the Senate but this can change!

Thank you,
Diane
