WHEREAS,      The National Association for Family and Community Education (FCE) introduces parents and children to alternatives to violent programming; and,
WHEREAS,      the FCE teaches critical viewing skills and advocates better television programming for children; and,
WHEREAS,      television can be beneficial if it is used wisely; and,

WHEREAS,      on April 5, 2000, FCE is sponsoring its annual Family ChoicE-TV Pledge Campaign to tune out violence; and,
WHEREAS,      FCE is asking that citizens make a conscious effort to avoid violent programming on that day.
