Proposed Budget Cuts Endanger Public Libraries in Texas

txla.org/take-action

With the creation of the first draft of the state budget, they are threatening to cut the state funds to the libraries...again. The Round Rock Library has posted requests that we lobby and write to our elected representatives. The link above to the Texas Library Association website will help you send some emails to your representatives very quickly. I ended up with another window, which gave me a letter to send to the Lt. Governor via paper mail. It really is quick and easy! You do have to put in your name and address, but it's not going to endanger you online. I do tend to give one of my "extra" email addresses to these political cause websites, because they sometimes start sending requests for more of me than I want to give.
