NEA & NEH Increase

Good news . . . for those of you who are paying attention to the 2010 process, and are focused on more than just healthcare (as important as that is), we have good news for you . . . Congress just passed a $12.5 million increase in funding as part of the FY 2010 Interior Appropriations bill for both the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) and the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH).

The FY 2010 Interior Appropriations bill (H.R. 2996) was passed in the Senate by a vote of 72-28 and in the House by a vote of 247­­-178.
