[SOA] Federal Gov't Budget

[George Bain]

Ohio Colleagues,

FYI, the following comes from an email message distributed today by the 
National Humanities Alliance:


Earlier today, President Trump released his Presidential Budget Request 
for FY 2021. Once again, the president has proposed the orderly shutdown 
of the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Institute for 
Museum and Library Services and zeroed out the budgets for the National 
Historical Publications and Records Commission and the Department of 
Education’s Title VI and Fulbright-Hays programs.

In past years, we have built strong support in Congress to defeat 
President Trump’s budget proposals. We are confident we can do this once 
again with your advocacy. Members of Congress need to hear from their 
constituents about the value of federal funding for the humanities.


As NHA indicates, things usually get restored mostly. But we need to be 
ready should there be call for action later in the year.

George
