“Since its founding, the NEH has had bipartisan support; legislators have understood that its work benefits all Americans—strengthening our communities, supporting cultural understanding, and promoting an informed democracy,” said MLA executive director Paula M. Krebs. “We will continue to fight for the NEH’s vital work.”

We will continue to press the argument—in court, with Congress, and with the public—that the NEH remains a critical agency for American democracy, history, literature, languages, philosophy, politics, society, and culture.
