Action Alert!

Oppose Cuts to the National Archives and Elimination of the NHPRC!

The House Financial Services and General Government Appropriations Subcommittee may take up the Fiscal Year (FY) 2020 appropriations bill funding the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) and National Historical Publications and Records Commission (NHPRC) as soon as the week of May 6. The Trump administration has proposed major cuts to the National Archives and the elimination of the NHPRC!

It is vitally important that you contact the members of the House Appropriations Committee TODAY and ask them to provide the National Archives with $410 million for its operating expenses and that Congress not eliminate the NHPRC and fund it at $10 million for FY 20.

Try to personalize your call or e-mail with an appeal that highlights the impact the National Archives and/or NHPRC grants have on your own work, your institution, and/or your congressional district and state. Each contact will make a difference. It is imperative that we make the voices of the historical and archives communities heard loud and clear. We can make a difference only if we take action now!

Initial action on an agency's budget is a two-step process. The full House Appropriations Committee will likely consider the bill a day or so after the FS&GG Subcommittee markup. So time is of the essence.
