Dolly Parton's Imagination Library is asking Indiana Governor Mike Braun to reconsider the state's decision to cut funding from the organization, which gives young children access to free books in an effort to promote literacy.
According to local reports by South Bend Tribune, lawmakers in the Indiana House recently proposed a change in a two-year budget plan that would no longer include the usual 50 percent matching funds the state provides to run the program. The organization, the United Way and local community foundations make up the rest of the funds needed for Imagination Library.
