Good morning:

CRIS Radio needs YOUR Help!  Gov. Malloy is recommending that all funding
($71,000) to CRIS be completely eliminated.  The result would be significant
and CRIS would no longer be able to offer CRIS Radios and our broadcast
service free of charge.

There is an opportunity to persuade state lawmakers that the service CRIS
provides is invaluable. You can help by doing the following:

*       Please write a letter of support;

*       Please agree to speak in support of CRIS at the committee's public
hearing on Thursday, Feb. 11 beginning at 4 p.m. at the Legislative Office
Building.

Speakers are limited to no more than 3 minutes.

Letters can be emailed to me, and I will convert them to PDFs and submit
them to the Appropriations Committee in advance of the public hearing. The
deadline for the letters is Thursday, Feb. 11 at 9 a.m.

Thank you all for your help and support. It is greatly appreciated.
Best,
Diane
