"Many of our historic sites and monuments are deteriorating and need to be preserved. ... And I am proud of the President's commitment to continue to support Save America's Treasures with 30 million dollars this year. The President wants to continue this support and the preservation of our heritage through Preserve America. Today, President Bush signed an Executive Order on Preserve America to ensure that everyone, especially our children, will continue to explore and learn from historic treasures like Jamestown."
