We can increase NEA and NEH funding to $211 million next year if we get enough support in Congress. Call your members of Congress today to ask that they sign their names in support of funding the NEA and NEH at $211 million in FY25. Ask them to join the arts appropriations request letters circulating in their respective chambers. NEA and NEH grants support job opportunities for union creative professionals in every state while providing all Americans with access to enriching programs that lift up local economies. These grants come with important workplace protections. Additionally, the NEA and NEH are critical to advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion in the arts, entertainment, and media industries. Taking action today helps get us closer to our ultimate goal of restoring the NEA and NEH to a full funding level of $1 per capita. https://actionnetwork.org/letters/tell-your-representative-to-support-federal-arts-funding-for-fy26
