It will be a total disgrace if this goes through. Please get involved and sign the petition...
Dear friend,
Thank you. Your name has been added to the petition and your comments will be delivered to your senators and representative.
Please take a moment to invite at least 3 friends and colleagues to sign. You can just forward the sample letter below.
Spreading the word is critical, but please only pass this message along to those who know you, of course—spam hurts our campaign.
Thanks for all you do.

Here's a sample message to send to your friends:
Subject: Save NPR and PBS (again)
Hi,
Everyone expected House Republicans to give up efforts to kill NPR and PBS after a massive public outcry stopped them last year. But they've just voted to eliminate funding for NPR and PBS—unbelievably, starting with programs like "Sesame Street."
Public broadcasting would lose nearly a quarter of its federal funding this year. Even worse, all funding would be eliminated in two years--threatening one of the last remaining sources of watchdog journalism.
Sign the petition telling Congress to save NPR and PBS again this year:
http://civic.moveon.org/publicbroadcasting/
Last year, millions of us took action to save NPR and PBS, and Congress listened. We can do it again if enough of us sign the petition in time.
This would be the most severe cut in the history of public broadcasting. The Boston Globe reports the cuts "could force the elimination of some popular PBS and NPR programs." NPR's president expects rural public radio stations may be forced to shut down.
The House and Senate are deciding if public broadcasting will survive, and they need to hear from viewers like you. Sign the petition at:

Thanks!
