(I drafted an email for you, available here. Add or remove content as you see fit. Send it to Rep. Dwight Evans, devans@hacd.net, Chairman of the House Committee on Appropriations by May 26, 2009.)
The House Committee on Appropriations is currently holding public hearings in Harrisburg, and they want written testimony from taxpayers. In addition to writing to Rep. Evans, please contact your other state representatives. If you don’t know who else to contact, look here for that information, and if you feel there’s more you should say, visit CLP’s advocacy page for information and talking points.
Libraries have never been busier. During this recession demand for library services across the Commonwealth are continually rising as more people search for jobs, families tighten their budgets, and retirees grapple with shrinking savings. We need libraries, and in this particular instance, libraries need us.
Send an e-mail, please. Right now. I did.
Thank you!
