Cultural Facilities Funding Bill Sent to the Governor!
10 Days to Win $250 million in Cultural Facilities Funding

June 16, 2006

Dear Friends,

Contact the Governor Immediately at http://capwiz.com/artsusa/ma/issues/alert/?alertid=8852146&type=SW&show_alert=1

Both the House and the Senate overwhelmingly passed the FY 06 economic stimulus bill creating and funding the Massachusetts Cultural Facilities Fund. The House vote was unanimous, 150-0, while the Senate voted in favor 35-1. The Governor must sign the bill into law or veto it in the next days, so all our advocacy must be done right away!

Please customize your e-mail be describing how your community will benefit from culutral facilties funding.

Through Massachusetts Cultural Facilities Fund, the state will invest up to $250 million over 10 years to improve, restore, and expand our cultural facilities all across the state.

Thank you for your support.

Sincerely,

Dan Hunter
