			Legislative Update - 8/1/03
			With specific funding levels for the Council’s Cultural Heritage Development Fund, The Historical Commission and the Arts Commission still in play, and no lack of other claimants at the Capitol for that funding, it might be wise for us to mount one last advocacy campaign to assure our funding in the budget implementer bill now being written. Please email or call (too late to write) your local legislator, emphasis your support for the heritage program of the Council and the Commission and urge that he/she strongly make that case to their legislative leaders as soon as possible. Information on both heritage granting programs, their economic impact, contact information for individual legislators, etc., are on the coalition advocacy website at <http://www.ctculture.org/chdf/index.htm>.
