DOGE cancelled or rescinded hundreds of National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) contracts nationwide, including those of the New Mexico Humanities Council (NMHC) and other cultural based organizations.
The NEH and NMHC need your help! The link below provides ways you can take action.
Cuts to NEH mean people will lose services, jobs, and even more importantly, access to educational programs that foster free thinking, creativity, and deeper understanding.
Please take action now to ensure funding continues to flow to your local communities. Every voice, email, call, letter and social media posts counts.
