Subject: Tell the Party of Five to support the Governor

If passed as written, this budget will cut millions from public education, cripple our public health services, and badly damage public infrastructure for years to come. These five Democrats are all that stands between North Carolina and this horrible budget. We need them to understand the damage they could cause and tell them we expect better from our representatives.

So I signed a petition to Representative William D. Brisson, Representative James W. Crawford, Jr., Representative Dewey L. Hill, Representative Bill Owens and Representative Timothy L. Spear, which says:

"This budget will eliminate jobs, it will cut hundreds of millions of dollars out of the K-12 system, and it will decimate our community colleges and universities. All of these cuts could be restored if you and your colleagues would consider revenues as a solution.

I urge you to consider the harm you are causing to the future of North Carolina, and I hope that you will not support a veto-override that undermines decades of progress."

Will you sign this petition? Click here:

Thanks!
