Save the NEH: What You Can Do
 |
You have likely learned that President Trump’s budget proposal for next year cuts or eliminates many important programs, including the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH).
The NEH costs each American citizen just $0.46 per year and those mere pennies produce vital cultural programming. Thanks to the NEH, our state enjoys historical tours, book talks, museum exhibitions, theater performances, films, and so much more. This critical funding—just 0.003% of the federal budget—dramatically improves civic life in Massachusetts.
We hope you will continue to follow the news of these proposed funding cuts. To help you get started, we offer details below.
What you need to know:
We recently traveled to Washington and met with legislators from Massachusetts. We will continue to advocate for humanities funding. Please join us by sharing your support for the humanities with people in your life.
Thank you,
David Tebaldi
