Access Tucson, Public Access Television, is being threaten with extinction, your help is needed to save it  Access Tucson is a most vital resource to protect our First Amendment Rights.  It has, and continues to sustain the vitality and culture of our community.  It's funds do not come from city budgets, but from public contributions and levies on Cox and Comcast Cable Providers.  I've been a part of  its history for 29-1/2 of its 30 year history, and can attest to its value to our community.

 

Whether or not you have ever used or watched Public Access Television, or currently live in the Tucson Area, you are still a part of  the Access Tucson family.  Let's not let this tried and true Community Resource slip away.  I have signed a petition to Jonathan Rothschild, Tucson Mayor and Members of the Tucson City Council which says:

"For over 30 years, Access Tucson has served the Tucson community at little to no cost, educated thousands of people, and served independent voices and nonprofits alike in a commitment to open, independent media access for residents of our city. The savings presented by the City Manager pale in comparison to the worth of this treasure. Please do not let Access Tucson disappear!"
