>>>  PBS & NPR Funding
>>>
>>>   The Supreme Court has agreed to hear the issue of
>>whether public
>>>funding to an artist can be linked with the idea of
>>whether the art is
>>>'decent.' After the Robert Mapplethorpe "scandal" not so
>>long ago,
>>>Congress passed a law that for an artist's art to receive
>>public money
>>>via the National Endowment for the Arts, it must be deemed
>>decent.
>>>
>>>   On NPR Morning Edition this morning, Nina Tottenberg
>>said that if the
>>>Supreme Court supports Congress, it is in effect the end
>>of NEA. Then,
>>>there's the question of Congressional funding: Funding for
>>NPR/NEA &
>>>PBS.
>>>
>>>   PBS, NPR (National Public Radio), 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
>>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 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 1.
>>>
>>>   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, the Vice President of the
>>United States,
>>>and Representative Newt Gingrich, who is 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 send to
>>>the e-mail address indicated. This is being forwarded to
>>several people
>>>at once to add their names to the petition. 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, a petition follows.
