President Trump, in his Fiscal Year 2026 Budget request, has called for the elimination of the National Endowment for the Arts. The NEA is essential to our livelihoods and our democracy. Without it, communities across the country, both rural and urban, will lack access to arts participation. The American Federation of Musicians continues to support increased funding for the NEA to at least $1 per capita in the United States.

[Publishers Weekly @PublishersWkly]

At least 38 publishers and a number of literary organizations have had grants from the National Endowment for the Arts terminated or rescinded, while four literary arts staffers at the NEA have been let go. https://t.co/AP30ekjm35
