Washington Post - More than 1,200 grants that support culture and history programs across the country are estimated to have been cut by the National Endowment for the Humanities, according to a coalition that advocates for the agency targeted last week in the Trump administration’s efforts to overhaul the federal government and reshape American culture.
On April 1, the New York Times reported that representatives of the U.S. DOGE Service, or the Department of Government Efficiency, told NEH managers it was looking to cut as much as 70 to 80 percent of the agency’s roughly 180-person staff. The next day, humanities councils in all 50 states received notice that their grants were being terminated.
