Trump tries to defund arts, culture and history again * Oregon ArtsWatch
""He has again recommended severe cuts to many domestic agencies, specifically proposing minimal funds in order to close the National Endowment for the Arts, National Endowment for the Humanities, and the Institute of Museum and Library Services.""
""While library advocates have a solid track record of defeating the president's threats, we do not underestimate the lengths to which he will go to undercut support for America's libraries.""
President Trump's proposed budget for FY27 includes plans to eliminate the National Endowment for the Arts, National Endowment for the Humanities, and the Institute of Museum and Library Services. This marks the sixth attempt to close these agencies since 2016. Arts advocacy groups are mobilizing support to urge Congress to maintain funding. The American Library Association emphasizes the importance of library funding and encourages advocates to voice their concerns. The budget proposal does continue funding for the Smithsonian Institution despite previous threats.
