Do you have two minutes?

Did you know that City Hall is proposing a 42% budget cut over last year's budget to the Bronx Zoo and the New York Aquarium, as well as other cultural institutions in the City? 42%! These are institutions that offer New York City residents of all ages an experience that cannot be valued with a price tag.

These institutions are far more than just tourist attractions -- they are valuable community organizations where families and students learn about some of the world's greatest species.  These experiences are priceless. Especially in these tough economic times, we cannot afford to let these programs and services suffer at the hands of our lawmakers.

The Bronx Zoo and the New York Aquarium create jobs and support businesses in our communities.

I just signed a petition to City Hall telling them to restore the proposed funding cuts. Will you take two minutes to do the same?
