NEA Receives Funding Increase in House Subcommittee

Let Your Members of Congress Know You Support the Arts!


A Message From Americans for the Arts
Arts Action Network

This afternoon in Congress, the House Interior Appropriations Subcommittee, which sets the initial funding level for the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA), approved a $15.3 million increase for the NEA in its FY 2009 spending bill. Chairman Norm Dicks (D-WA) has once again proposed an increase in funding for arts and culture in the face of a dramatic cut proposed by the president's recent budget.





Please click here to send a message to your Members of Congress telling them to support this important funding increase!

Currently funded at $144.7 million, this increase would bring the agency's budget to $160 million. President Bush requested a cut to $128 million for the NEA for FY09 from the current $144.7 million level. On Arts Advocacy Day, Americans for the Arts presented a panel of witnesses before Chairman Dicks' Appropriations Subcommittee calling for a significant increase in funding for the NEA. Witnesses included actor/director Robert Redford, musician John Legend, and actor Kerry Washington.







Thanks to all of the grassroots advocates for your letters and calls to Congress and for attending Arts Advocacy Day.





We're seeing the results!

Next Steps:
The FY 2009 Interior Appropriations bill will next go to full committee and then to the House floor for final consideration where your help may be needed to defend against floor amendments attempting to cut this increase. We must now put pressure on the Senate to match this funding level.





Please don't forget to take two minutes to visit the Americans for the Arts E-Advocacy Center (LINK ABOVE) to send a letter to your Members of Congress letting them know that the arts are important to you!

As always, thank you for your advocacy efforts. Your voice does make a difference.
