Reposted from the National Humanities Alliance
On Monday, March 31, 2025 we learned that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is targeting the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) with the aim of substantially reducing its staff, cutting the agency’s grant programs, and rescinding grants that have already been awarded.
As we have seen with similar recent actions, including the recent attack on IMLS, these actions have the potential to devastate the agency.
We learned the morning of Thursday, April 3, that DOGE has begun terminating previously awarded NEH grants. We understand that this includes operating grants to the state and jurisdictional humanities councils, scholarly societies, community organizations, and individuals.
It is imperative that you take action now by reaching out to your Members of Congress and encouraging them to support the NEH.
