Kathy Zappitello Supports Libraries and Ran for Office, Why Not You? Library supporters like you belong on the ballot.

Running for office might feel like a big leap, but if you care about libraries, your community already needs you in the room where decisions are made.

Our Children Need To Feel Supported By the Adults in Their Lives. And, for me, that means stepping up to run for office and winning in November.

"Moments like this compelled me to do more than just be an advocate.

To do more than volunteer in my daughter’s school.

I was compelled to be that change I wanted to see in our district." - Micheal Garza

They banned her books about trees! The same people who banned this book are now championing a Federal Book Ban Bill, which would allow the Federal Government to make the same decisions in your community.

Imagine a book about trees being targeted for removal.

It sounds unbelievable, but that is exactly what book banners are doing.

What Does Federal Funding for Libraries Pay For? You'll be surprised!

We know that Trump's proposed budget destroys the Institute of Museum and Library Services.

But what does IMLS do, and why does it matter?

You might be surprised!

Tell Congress: Protect the Freedom to Read Help support libraries across the country by taking action today!

The Right to Read Act will strengthen literacy by ensuring students have access to books and professional librarians.

The Fight Book Bans Act would protect students’ ability to explore diverse ideas and prevent politically motivated efforts to ban books.

Hard to overstate how bad this is. This would be *national legislation to aid book banning*. The time to call your reps and say you are against HR 7661 is NOW.

PETITION: Don't Let the Federal Government Regulate Your Reading Not one country's freedom and liberty has ever been increased by banning books.

Your child shouldn't grow up in a country where politicians in Washington determine which stories are acceptable.

You're the parent. Not the Federal Government.
