Take action: DOGE cutting National Endowment for the Humanities grants
as well as all grants, including operating support, to state humanities councils.
From the National Humanities Alliance
We learned this morning (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. While we know that grants are being terminated, we do not yet know the full scope of terminations.
At this moment, our understanding is that the grant terminations are being issued directly from DOGE and that the email address included in the termination letter is a DOGE email address. Emails sent to this address go to DOGE directly and not the NEH.
DOGE is rescinding grants that have already been awarded, including operating support grants for state and jurisdictional humanities councils. This money has been appropriated by Congress for the states, and DOGE is taking it against the express will of Congress. Take action now by alerting Congress!
From the Federation of State Humanities Councils
Late last night, Wednesday, April 2, all humanities councils received emails and letters under the signature of NEH Acting Chair Michael McDonald notifying them that all awarded grants—including their 5-year General Operating Grants and other program-specific awards—were canceled in their entirety, effective April 1. We will continue to share updates as we learn more.
