We need your help to save our libraries and museums. In response to the ALA winning their lawsuit, the current administration proposed the 2026 budget with no funding for the IMLS. The ALA launched a #FundLibraries campaign to encourage people to contact their Congress people to get our libraries funded for 2026. Thankfully, they managed to defeat the budget proposal!
But libraries and museums are still under attack. Please continue to tell your electeds that you want your libraries funded before they’re lost forever.
