Selected Message: Vote Saturday for ACC         Election day has arrived, and I ask you to join me and many others in voting "For" the two propositions to provide the support that Austin Community College needs to replace state cutbacks and meet community demands for its services.         If the propositions do not pass, ACC will have to both raise student tuition drasticly (limiting access to all programs) and cut back on needed but expensive programs such as nursing and workforce training.  All of us will suffer if Austin-area access to higher education is reduced.         The modest increase in ACC taxes (an average of $5/month, phased in over three years -- much less for seniors) will be more than repaid by savings in other social services and in the economic development it will promote.  Citizens of all perspectives have united to urge voter approval.         Even if you do not normally vote in city elections, take a few minutes Saturday to support this vital tool for building individual and community success.  See www.accyes.org for other information and a list of supporting organizations and citizens.         Either use one of these complete messages:      Vote Reminder      Highlights      Social Emphasis      Economic Emphasis      Non-political message Or select a few specific themes to emphasize:      Custom (check desired themes below) Current level of operations is threatened Relate state funding cuts to tuition Impact of cutbacks and high tuition on access ACC is where most students start ACC serves 70,000 people per year Expansion of nursing program at risk ACC provides support for K-12 education Good return on investment Taxes will still be well below state average Average-home cost only $5/month more Broad community support Tax calculator & ACCYES! web site Home Page      Pd.
