[Libs-Or] Release a statement that funding libraries and museums is a core federal responsibility.

[Diedre Conkling]

There is a We the People petition at http://wh.gov/lduSR that I think you
should sign.

----------------

we petition the obama administration to:Release a statement that funding
libraries and museums is a core federal responsibility.

The current proposed House Budget says "The Federal Institute of Museum and
Library Services is an independent agency that makes grants to museums and
libraries. This is not a core federal responsibility". We would like the
White House Administration to release a statement that having an informed
and literate citizenry and protecting cultural heritage are priorities for
the administration and that funding institutions that contribute to this
work is indeed a core federal responsibility.
