Latest on NEH from National Humanities Alliance
"UPDATE: We learned this morning (April 3) that DOGE has begun terminating previously awarded NEH grants. We understand that this includes operating grants to the state and jurisdictional humanities councils, scholarly societies, community organizations, and individuals. While we know that grants are being terminated, we do not yet know the full scope of terminations."
"On Monday, March 31, 2025 we learned that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is targeting the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) with the aim of substantially reducing its staff, cutting the agency’s grant programs, and rescinding grants that have already been awarded."
Latest on IMLS from American Alliance of Museums
"On March 31, the entire Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) staff was placed on administrative leave as a follow up to the executive order from March 14. Read AAM’s statement.
Placing the entire staff on administrative leave raises questions as to whether the agency will be able to fulfill its legal obligations to disburse congressionally appropriated funding, leaving museums, libraries, and communities across the country at risk of losing vital resources."
"On March 14, President Trump issued an Executive Order directing further cuts to an agency that is already operating at a minimum level, making up only 0.0046% of the overall federal budget. IMLS efficiently provides critical resources to libraries and museums in all 50 states and territories. Please email AND call your members of Congress today. It is very important that you include in your email how important IMLS is to you, your museum, and the community your museum serves."
