RE: Save NPR and PBS

Dear MoveOn member,

Amazing! Since yesterday, more than 290,000 people have signed our petition telling Republicans to keep their hands off of federal funding for PBS and NPR.

We're aiming to deliver a half-million signatures to Congress next week, to make clear that public broadcasting serves a huge number of Americans and cutting its funding is simply unacceptable.

Can you help us reach our goal by sharing the petition on Facebook this weekend?

Thanks for all you do.

P.S. You can also just forward the email below asking people to sign:

The Republicans just released their budget proposal, and it zeroes out funding for both NPR and PBS—the worst proposal in more than a decade. We need to tell Republicans that cutting off funding was unacceptable last time they were in charge, and it's unacceptable now.

I just signed the petition to save NPR and PBS. Can you join me at the link below?

Thanks!
