The Pacifica National Board finally caved and approved our budget exactly as we demanded. Those bureaucrats in charge ignored us for too long but they were forced to back down today. We will keep watching them like hawks to ensure they never try to sabotage our local control again.

To members of the Pacifica National Board:
We, the members of KPFA, call on you to RESPECT LOCAL CONTROL and APPROVE KPFA's BUDGET in the form adopted by our Local Station Board, with funding increases for KPFA's Apprenticeship Program intact.
KPFA's local board members and staff have carefully and conscientiously drawn up the budget. Please respect their diligent work and approve it.

The Pacifica National Board is finally feeling the heat because of this movement. They are trying to ignore the local autonomy of KPFA, but this momentum proves they cannot silence us anymore.

The Pacifica National Board thinks they can ignore us while they gut our local programming. We are almost at one hundred signatures so push this out everywhere right now to show them we are not going away.

Approve the budget already. KPFA is the heart of the community.
Stop messing with KPFA. It is the only station I actually listen to and they know what they need better than some national board.
The local board did the work so just pass the budget. Tired of all the infighting distracting from the real content.
The apprenticeship program is vital. Dont cut the funding for the next generation of radio.
LEAVE KPFA ALONE. We know what works for our station.

Why is this even a question? Listen to the station staff and let them do their jobs. Ridiculous.
